To recreate Damon Clarke's original image I have taken photos of a leaf with the sun as back lighting. For this photo I have used a aperture of f/8 to capture the detail across the image as well as an ISO of 80 to counter act the sun however this still left the image much brighter than the image I am trying to emulate.
This is the final image after I have edited it. I have altered the colour balance as well as healing the hole in the leaf in order to bring it closer to the target image. In addition I have also altered the levels to increase the contrast which brings out the veins in the leaf and added a vignette to darken the edges leading your eyes to the brighter centre.
