leaves in the light

Just some leaves I walked past today...

I like both but #1 is more eye-catching

I agree. The black background makes the leaves stand out more.:thumbup:

Thanks

Well, I was lucky there was some dark trees in the background. Contrast has been enhanced a bit to get them even darker.

would at least expect LaFoto to comment, since there is quite a bit of green in it

Oh yes, LaFoto's conscience has been striking her ever since she's first seen these two photos (of which she likes the first best), for her immediate thought was "This is a photo I could have taken myself, too, this subject and light would have made me photograph this, as well".

Now she's finally here to say so!
There is not only "a bit of green" in them.
There is THE BEST GREEN EVER to be seen, and backlit. :thumbup:

this was my compensation for the other aggressively green image I posted recently

i almost got blind when shooting the second image.. .the wind suddenly blew the leave away ... and the sun hit my eye through the viewfinder
