But then again, that's what makes the moments we do get to shoot so special.<BR/><BR/>Kove the image.Monterey Johnhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13114195139480244636noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22699077.post-32514477234370471722008-01-30T06:18:00.000-05:002008-01-30T06:18:00.000-05:00J'adore l'harmonie des couleursPanographyhttp://www.photos-panographiques.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22699077.post-28400186416170290782008-01-30T00:45:00.000-05:002008-01-30T00:45:00.000-05:00everything that of beautiful that could be said, it has been said.

Nicely done. <BR/><BR/>The sun will eventually return and the clouds will blow away. Look at the bright side: this gives you more practice time with your studio lights and more opportunity for experimentation.Russhttp://newhanover.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22699077.post-34340505851450727392008-01-29T17:57:00.000-05:002008-01-29T17:57:00.000-05:00Bonsoir,<BR/>Well done shot..Beautiful exposure..Bravo!jelbhttp://www.brisedemer.net/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22699077.post-61709287341150453192008-01-29T14:02:00.000-05:002008-01-29T14:02:00.000-05:00Hello,Laurie.<BR/>Such a interesting shape the leaf has!Just like a coat of gentleman.:)miu*http://www.blogger.com/profile/17145377818347017464noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22699077.post-79237679143744904202008-01-29T09:58:00.000-05:002008-01-29T09:58:00.000-05:00Beautiful...<BR/><BR/>:o)<BR/>TTonyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06739224911388015289noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22699077.post-51205720329818254512008-01-29T05:13:00.000-05:002008-01-29T05:13:00.000-05:00how wonderful composed... just wow!riesenrielhttp://www.riesenriel.nlnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22699077.post-76990803304028049832008-01-29T00:55:00.000-05:002008-01-29T00:55:00.000-05:00Laurie, this is spectacular.

I am a lover of leaves....and this one makes my heart sing! I love how the light is on the edges... and the middle is a bit darker. <BR/><BR/>An Amazing Image!Kerrihttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07617128767655910810noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22699077.post-86444204644292842032008-01-28T06:37:00.000-05:002008-01-28T06:37:00.000-05:00The light certainly is beautiful on that leaf! There's lots of lovely textures and interesting shadows, there.<BR/><BR/>You've already made your lightbox, so the gray, overcast days are offering you no advantage. :-) I usually use those types of days to shoot flower macros, or perhaps play with lower shutter speeds and motion.Paulhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00794079257866559509noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22699077.post-1075876506036574812008-01-27T23:39:00.000-05:002008-01-27T23:39:00.000-05:00A beautiful image with a superb light!<BR/>Ah, Winter is not forever!Sidneyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02495108366627361182noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22699077.post-49896195474177382332008-01-27T21:51:00.000-05:002008-01-27T21:51:00.000-05:00I'm not a winter person either. I was born, raised, and spent the first 25 years of my life in Ohio and then moved to the south. I know what you mean about the grey days. Ohio was like that. I tried to find where you live and never saw that part, but did see the photo of your son who is serving in the Armed Forces. May the Lord bring him home safely to you....as for the image, it's a leaf, but more than that, it's an extraordinary image. Exceptional capture and processing.sherrihttp://www.pearweed.netnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22699077.post-1269377768122329322008-01-27T16:06:00.000-05:002008-01-27T16:06:00.000-05:00Wonderful macro shot, love the colors:)bookbabiehttp://bookbabie.wordpress.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22699077.post-24673444418464001842008-01-27T15:45:00.001-05:002008-01-27T15:45:00.001-05:00Oh Laurie, this one is just marvellous.

The colors are rich, and the light brings out the texture of the leaves.<BR/>I, too, find winter a challenge as a photographer.Anita Bowerhttp://anitabower.aminus3.com/noreply@blogger.com
