Photographer's Note
I said I would reshoot this one,thank you for all the workshops on the last one. The leaves are all from a Witch Hazel bush (Hamamelis X intermedia `Jelena`) , better know for being used in a herbal cure for skin problems,.We grow it for these beautiful A/colour and its little orange flowers late in the winter before the leaves come.
the leaves are arranged on a piece of smooth-cut limestone

Le cadre est original. Les couleurs sont saturées, on voit bien la texture. L'agencement des feuilles est bon. Une belle réussite!

Beautiful selection of autumn colours. Nice choice of background for setting them off.

Hi Robert,
Nice work with these leaves. You've put them in a nice shape and the autumn colours are very vivid, lovely! I like the different tones of the leaves, great work.
Nice border too, I like that you've rotated it 45%, the black is good, the coloured edge and signature are also nicely done.
Very goob job!
Useful note, maybe a bit too detailed on something, but doesn't hurt.
Regards,
Emiel.
