Posted by Steve Rice (Olympia, United States) on 12 January 2009 in Plant & Nature.

While making my way around Capital Lake, I came across an icy footprint with this leaf in the middle of it.

A nice "find" to notice and shoot. I like the contrast between the color of the leaf and the black and white icy part of the picture. Well done.

I really like the presentation here. Wonderful contrast with the radiant leaf against the mono background. Could be a page from a childrens book. Superb

Very nicely framed. someone else commented about selective color...isn't it natural?

A leaf on ice and what a beautiful fall color it still has. There's something 'zen' like about it, beautiful capture.

Awesome shot!

Pixim from Nice, France

Once again, I like much the plays of coulors/B&W carried out. This leaf is seized in the ice, its skeleton, like these colors. Original and well play ;)
