      Very beautiful. Your eye for detail and light always amazes me. As you know, I am a bit obsessed with tight crops, so you won't mind me saying: Have you considered cropping the sides a bit? The background on the right hand side is a touch distracting. And I see it's the Canon! Don't let it go!

      Hey Agata! Agree completely with you - the right-hand side has been bugging me, but I didn't crop right away as I liked the symmetry. I'm uploading a square cropped version which I prefer - let me know what you think! NB. I didn't like the 350d nearly as much as I thought I would - the macro lens has such a small focal area. Lots of food for thought....

      Backlit leaves rock! I like how this one has variations in light and dark areas. I disagree with AgataL and Zed Bee about the cropping. Cropping out the right side would make the photo more bland - it takes the leaf too much out of its context.
