Same leaf as last week's high key taken at a different time of day at a slightly different angle to get the darker background. No focus stack this week as there was no wind so it was easier to get the focus.

For me, I think the high key version is more effective but, I stayed with ...

I was wondering if it was the same leaf when I saw the image. I couldn't say which image I like better. Both are good, just different. You have some nice deep blacks there but I also like the mottled blues in the background. I like the detail of the spiderwebs and once again you got some great detail in the leaf. I really like how there are some blues to pick up the background. I think a touch more depth of field would be nice, but with a 1/8s exposure, I wouldn't try focus stacking either. These will be nice contrasting images in the album.
