Very eye-catching blend of vibrant color and dark shadows...good clarity and the sharpness of the leaves make it all the more striking...nice job Mr.Hottrockin.

I would have cloned out all imperfections such as light spots on the green leaves and the little slivers of light that pulls ones eye from the main subject, but that's just me. Great capture for sure, and on my desktop for a week or so. All the best to you and your loved ones. Dwight.
