Description
It is painful to lose someone you love.--
One of the photos that i prepared to submit, but never actually did because i didn't think it was good enough or i wasn't happy with in some way. This one's from the 1st of February.

Hey, i'm glad you like my work! This shot isn't really very old. I took it at the start of February 2005. But I have been submitting some older shots recently (mostly from january or february 2005).

Well done.

Simply gorgeous! The contrast is beautiful, the silver just pulls your eye straight to the leaf... and the droplets add the entire feel of lonelyness to the shot... very very nicely done

I walked out the front door and saw this little leaf sitting on top of my brothers car and i couldn't resist getting a couple of shots. I don't think it would work very well without the drops. Thanks for the feedback! I'm glad you like it

wow, such a neat contrast. Smooth metallic, then organic nature. Nice.

well this is a pretty neat macro...I like the detail in the surface of the ?car paint and the leaf itself...I would have liked to have the leaf detail just that little bit sharper...the focus has concentrated on the right side mainly
otherwise though, a great submission - glad you shared!

yeah, it would have been better to get the whole leaf in focus. maybe that's why i wasn't going to submit it

The textures are my favourite part of this one, the colour isn't outstanding and shouldn't be.

I *LOVE* this picture. It's my favourite I think of all the ones of yours. (bad sentence, I know).
I like how the leaf seems so lonely, and drippy...but the background isn't black, its silver, which leaves some hope for the little lonely leaf

Lovely interpretation

i love the photo. i think likening rain drops to tear drops is an overused metaphor, but i love the way the contrast between the colors in the leaf and the greys of the background and rain works to convey a similar sense of sadness.

it probably is an overused metaphor

aah, well, it's interesting to think about (trees being sad at the loss of their leaves). Only the title is clichΓ©, i thought.

ooh, that's a great macro shot, but i like the emotion behind it as well. they really do look like teardrops...
lovely.

the tree is crying because it has lost it's favourite leaf
π: 0 β©: 1
aww! I can really imagine a children's story about that... the tree loses its favourite leaf and it's all upset but then it gets new ones... *thinks*

wow! I loke how the leaf isn't quite dead yet and all brown. I love the color and how it's still decaying. And if it had been a freshly fallen leaf that was still green, it would have given the picture a whole different perspective. Awsome shot!

Yes, i was pleased to find the perfectly coloured leaf sitting there in the rain like this

it's even more painful to realize how much they mean to you when they're gone...
one of the saddest things is to

so true. Thanks for your comment.

If the focus were tweaked to make it more selective, this would be stronger. However its a nice photo in and of itself. You have a great way with color.

thankyou so much! I thought the description may have been a little too abstract, so i'm glad you can appreciate it

The description was bang on! If you hadn't written it, I wouldn't have been able to see the photo that way

really fantastic image, i love the opposition of the grey and green, the contrast of natural against manmade

I really like all of your pictures that include water. But I tend to agree that it's not as good as your other photos.
