Interesting shapes, patterns and colours.Have you tried backlighting it by making a home made light box?

As above really Mark , good idea and a great subject matter but I don't think it quite works as it is but I'm afraid I'm not sure what to do to make it better .

Like the detail in the leaf but not so sure about the pink background.

Thank you guys, the color was added using my new flash off camera with my wifes old phone case over it thats what added the color more just playing around than anything else. Im not sure if I still have the leaf or what condition it will be in if I have but im going to try again if I have

I like it mostly - I even like the colored background. I only wish more of the leaf had been in the photo. It feels a bit abrupt.
