As title says, taken in a very dark room.

that is a very beautiful shot, theres something about it reminds me of the lord of the rings, those elven leaves of lorien.

Nicely done.

Very good I like the use of the torch to provide back lighting just the kind of thing that I love The only thing for me that's a little bit of a shame if the coldness of the light on the not back lit sections of the leaf, I guess maybe the torch that you were using was a white LED maybe if you were to modify it with a yellow/orange gel just to warm the lighting up a little

You know Matt I am very impressed with a lot of your comments I have noticed on other peoples images, they are spot on. You are entirely correct, I also thought the curling edges of the leaf were cold, and during processing used the saturatiion tool to try and warm them up. I maybe will try selecting this part of the shot and alter the colour on this part.

Cheers and keep up the very well observed comments.

Very nice work Steve.
Maybe think about slight sharpen of bright inner leaf.

Thank you for the comments gents.

Very nice.

To be picky, I think some bits of the b/g could do with burning in a little to tidy it up, but that really is quite beautiful. I think it's brought the structure of the leaf out brilliantly.
