You succeeded in your attempt. I enjoy these self-assignments you are sharing with us. I like the tones in the leaf.

Oh, I really like this! This leaf pops on the IR grass. I agree with Tomas Turecek’s comment. Wow!

Excellent imagination and excellent work during whole process of creating this interesting image. At first sight it looked to me very unrealisticaly and I was thinking why. I think that one reason might be too big contrast between the background (grass) and the leaf when the leaf looks almost like taken from real (not IR) photo. I was looking at it a while longer and noticed that shadows on the leaf are quite good (realistic) but I can’t see any shadows beneath the leaf and it creates an illusion like the leaf is floating. That is probably because of IR. Anyway, this is very interesting experiment. I honestly appreciate and like your experimenting in last days and weeks, you show us all the other different ways and possibilities of taking photos which are not used very often and that’s really great!

I like this alot, but then again, I’m beginning to become quite fond of photos that mix color and no color!

I like it! Looks like the leaf is floating on top of the grass.
Would be interesting to see the original image.
