I really like the composition of the first one, although I would've preferred a little more DOF. The foot atop the "spine" of the leaf is perfect. Nice job.
Thanks!I'm glad it stayed still for the whole 8 seconds ... it retains a bit of a sense of 'motion' even though it was stock still.RE: DOF ... I'm always afraid to go past f/16 - but maybe I should get over that for this kind of shot.
