This is my most successful image because it demonstrates back lighting and emphasizes the different patterns in the leaf. By using this method, the leaf gains a transparent look which highlights the swirls and patterns. The most challenging part of this assignment was finding varying subjects to photograph. I love nature so I took a lot of pictures of things like plants, but I'd like to broaden my horizons. In the future, I will try to find other subjects by going to different places or using varying props.

"I really love this picture! I think it's amazing that you were able to find multiple categories just in this single picture, like the high perspective, complementary colors, and background control. I think photographing the sushi on a dark, plain surface really makes the colors pop! If you had taken this picture from any other angle or perspective, the colors would not have been as eye catching. Amazing picture!"

Hello Emma, I think your leaf picture is very cool and the amount of detail you were able to get in your picture is great. It kind of reminds me of a high quality picture you would see on the front of a science nature magazine.

Hi Emma, you did an amazing job taking this picture of this leaf! The use of back lighting really brings out the details on the leaf, the various amounts of lighting that allow for us to see the impact of the back lighting. I love how you can see the pattern and details on the leaf as well as the vibrance of the green color. Overall a great photo!

I love this picture of the leaf! The lighting is amazing which allows for a lot of the detail in the leaf to be shown. I love being able to see the little bug, which means the focus is amazing in the image. I think it would be cool to capture this image with some water droplets as well!

Howdy Emma,

The photo that you took of this leaf is fantastic! The lighting really brings into view the texture and patterns that would have otherwise been missed, while the transparency adds depth to make the image alive. The focus is perfect for the drawing of attention to the veins of the leaf and the soft swirls. Great work on this image overall!

Also, this picture captures the beauty of nature in a curious way. The point of interest makes the network of veins that will find a resolution toward the center. You framed the leaf in such a way that feels natural and at the same time artistic. All parts of the leaf are in focus so textures and patterns come through. The balance of exposure and contrast is working here, while the greens are rich. This shot is very calming and connecting to nature. If I'm going to say something, maybe increase the contrast a bit more to make those veins pop more.

This photo is amazing and beautiful! It is very detailed and clear. You use the whole space and the saturation really emphasizes the detail in the photo. The bright green was very eye catching and I love it! Beautiful job

This is such a beautiful photo! It is so clear and detailed and really lets you see the leaf really close up. The color is also amazing and I am in awe of how it looks like it is right in front of me and not a photograph at all. The saturation allows you to see the leaf in a much more detailed way. This almost lets you think of what a leaf would look like to a smaller organism since it is taking up the entire space and is the only thing you are seeing. Very cool!

Wow this photo is so clear and detailed. The longer I look at it, the more aspects of the photos I discover... such as the tiny lines on the leaves and how the light green seems to almost glow in the light! The saturation and coloring really emphasizes these components. I love how zoomed in the photo is, it allows the viewer to appreciate the plant from such a close distance which isn't always possible!
