I like the dark look and the details of the wet areas on the leaf.
Actually, I like the look of this with a bright background.

Excellent detail and the stones add that little extra, very nice.

Hi

For my tastes this would look better compositionally as a panoramic losing the upper OOF areas - but hey that just my take and this is a nicely imaginative exposure . image

All the best
