Agree about the cliche-ed-ness. Very disappointed at my conformity.

Very interesting title because it doesn't seem like your light source is coming from behind but in front of the leaf.

This actually looks more front lit to me. Love the contrast of the incredible colors, fabulous bokeh. But what's with that white spec on the left...
