Default sycamore leaf plate

the property i work at has alot of sycamore trees. i started thinking about trying to make a plate in the shape of a leaf. took a leaf an traced it out onto some 3/4" maple and cut the design on my scrollsaw. the picture carved is what i see out my window everyday. thanks for viewing.
