I'm not sure what to say about this one. The texture looks nice but sort of distracts me from the subject. I really like the color work you did to it. I like the way it was lit. Not too sure about a DoF that shallow, though.

I cannot say I don't like it and certainly cannot say it's bad. It's very good. I think had you either stopped down or left off the texture it may have been better. Something is a little off to me, but that's just my opinion...whatever that's worth!

I have yet to experiment with layering as I'd like. Fantastic result.

I love the color you used for manipulation/layering. The leaf has a great simplicity to it which makes a great composition for manipulation.
