I like it even with the leaves

I would have been tempted to do something with the background, maybe darken the shadows to loose it ?

Like the composition and colour contrast very much. As previously said I think the background could do with darkening down. Also you may wish to revisit the PL the stem appears to have halos - possibly over sharpened ? Good shot overall though

Interesting and unusual viewpoint, I like it. Even the leaves this time

Thanks Ian.

I tried different backgrounds, light, dark, even white, but they did not look quite right, so I settled on whats above.

See reply to Ian, above, re background.

Thanks re stem halos, good point.
