Thanks Frank! The leaf was photographed in situ, though I circled it for a couple of minutes trying out different angles and framing before I shot the shot I did. I think I ended up lying on the grass on my elbows, with the camera focused as close as I could get it. I would have liked to have framed a bit more tightly on the leaf, but given the lens in question, it wouldn't let me. Oh well. :-)
