Really like the tonal values Jeff.
I would love just a wee bit of colour in the leaves...not the full whack, just a slight soft tinge.
I think I meant just a touch of colour in the oak leaves and keep the background B&W. Those beautiful curls and shapes work well with the gentle browns ...not so much with the green background as you lose contrast.
That said..the more I see it in B&W the more Ilove it like that.
