Photographer’s Note
This is a macro of a backlit leaf from a Brazilian Orchid tree in Scottsdale, AZ. These trees are used for landscaping in the warm desert climate. I shot this in color, then converted to black & white, adjusted the contrast and sharpened. It amazes me to see the structure that nature builds.

James, it's very well realised macro. Very good composition with the lines going from the right side. I like also to see some background / space near right sight.
Sorry, my points are finished today.

Lovely translucent light and great detail from the structure of the leaf.
