A close-up of a branch of Japanese maple (Acer palmatum) with vibrant orange and red autumn leaves, isolated on a clean white background. The leaves are sharply detailed, showing their delicate, pointed shapes and natural color gradients. The branch is thin and dark, with leaves radiating outward in a natural, organic arrangement. The composition is bright and crisp, with no other objects or distractions, perfectly centered and isolated for a botanical or nature study look. --raw
