Red face How would you PP this photo?

Hi All

I hope I'm in the correct forum, and if not, please let me know!

I am interested in feedback/critique of this photo, but would also be interested to see how others would PP the original. I have posted the original at my flickr account, as I was not sure whether it was OK to post it here. You can see my flickr account by clicking on the photo.

Thanks for your time and feedback!

Lisa

As far as black and white processing goes I think you are spot on!

Definitely go with the black and white conversion without cropping the tip of the leaf off on top.

I think its dead on ! I like it alot, but if I played with it I might try to add a touch of sepia.Not saying it would come out better,but I usually add a touch sometimes.

Nice photo !

Default Howabout this?

I love your first edit, but i think it needs a little more space above the leaf so that the tip isn't cut off.
