 Well, I wen't to the zoo looking for "Things you might see at the zoo" and all my animal pictures turned out mediocre but I found this leaf. It was positivly glowing all by itself, so I had to take a picture and after I looked at it, realized that it had really great texture.

I think my favorite part about this picture, is that depending on how you look at this leaf you can see it from the front, or from the back...that is, the veins will either be poping out at you or receding away from you - Try it! (It was creeping me out the whole time I was playing with it in PS)

PP:
Converted from RAW, then very little bits of Hue/Sat, Brightness/Contrast, and Levels. Resized, saved in JPEG.

Nice composition. I like the colors but the main "vein" seems to have a bit of a yellowish glow to it. Makes me think it is neon. I still like it but gave it a 6.
