Hello! Thank you very much for voting for my previous work so I could pass it to the Round 2!
This Larva was sleeping on the green leaf so I could take a shot with the back-lighting which illuminated it through.
My perception of Round 2 is that participants need to make an accent on art, composition and fitting to the personal theme.
This work can be viewed as an embryo, seashell, spiral, etc, because it has golden ratio which represents Natural Shapes.
I hope you like this work!
Thank you!

Wow. Really, an art image. I think you gain my vote.

You won one of my votes with this luminous image, which does a great job of capturing the specified theme. It will be even more compelling without the white "leaf" signature tag at right (distracts the eye a little).

Natural is as natural does. A great image needs no manipulation. It is a fitting image that stands on its merits as it is, so it gets my vote.

Thank you very much for these kind words.
Actually, the right lower corner is an natural edge of the leaf from the birch tree.
I was thinking "to clone stamp it in photoshop or not?".
But decided to have zero editing and post actual image, only RAW conversion
