This is a close-up look at a the curved side of a Pickerall Reed leaf as it caught some sun the morning after a rain. I was attracted to the mix of curved lines from the leaf’s veins and the remaining drops.

This is a nearly life size view, that needed 119 shots to get full frame sharpness.

Wow, I like the curved lines and the 3d appearance of this image. Stacking came out very well and this one is special. Awesome…Jim

A beautiful view, Mark, and the black BG was for sure the way to go. Such intricate stacking brings out the 3D effects of that curve perfectly.
