I really love the tonal range you have here and I love the contrast! I would have liked to see the black background cleaned up a bit, pre photo of course. The white spots are distracting. I think it would have been great to see all of the leaves be the same and closer in. All leaves and no background at all would also be a good thing to try. With the quailty of the light and your tonal range even just cropping in a bit would make it more interesting. Good job, I think you nailed th ansel adams lighting and tones. |

| Good tones, but I'd have cloned out the spots and debris. DOF is a little narrow for the fronds in the foreground. |

| I would expect to see a much greater range of tones for this to be a top scorer. That said , I like the composition here. |

| Great detail in the leaves. I can see a few white specks on the black background - could these be cloned out? |

| Great photography, as you captured the tonal range, and Ansel would have been proud of you for that. I'm not sure if this is the type of subject or composition he would have chosen. The dust spots in the black background bother me a lot. But the textures and tones in the leaves themselves are wonderful. <7> |

| Nicely laid out, but the specks (dust?) detract from the image. |
