I have always wanted to take leaf in back lighting showing clearly the line and texture of it. This is more than I could possibly ask for with 2 different leaf-footed bug species on each side of the leaf. I welcome your C & C for improvements.

The light and leaf detail are excellent, the bug and shadow look great together.

Hi Anthony! Splendid image. The typical silhouetted bug/gecko/whatever on the other side of a leaf is always nice to look at, but I am really digging this image with a subject on each side. Very unique. The composition is excellent with the curve of the leaf along the bottom as well as the placement of the vein along the top. Well done.
