Here’s an autumn leaf (Big Leaf Maple) rescued from the sidewalk and brought home for a carefully controlled tripod shot, 35mm and LF. About 1:1.5 and a full-frame scan. It’s a natural light shot from a nearby curtained window. I think the tiny, non-planar segments helped create the specular highlights. A polarizer may have rendered a very different look and feel.
