Congrats on a top 50 finish. I like the dark clouds behind the posts and the colors in this image. I am not crazy about the composition because the posts appear to be cutting or blocking two significant trees. If it was possible to change position and have the posts line up between the trees or on the outer edge, I think I would have liked it better. I would have voted this a 7 as it is.

I don't usually care much for the barbed wire shots, but this one is really nice. I like the contrast of the green background and the brown and silber wire. And the progression of the plant along the wire is very effective.

Trading post - The posts surely arent moving now - but who knows when that storm comes through. Easily met the challenge and the contrast between the posts andthe sky is nice. But my eyes are really drawn to the clouds. They are the focal point for me - and they are cool. Would be nice to see another version of this with a nice blue sky with poofy clouds. Good focus and detasil through out and the lighting onthe foregournd is really quite good considering the sky in the background. Top 50 out of almost 300 is great. Good work Deb.

Trading post - Darned cat (I should know - I have three of em). Good comp on this shot. Th e three stages offer good interest. The main flower seems a bit soft - wish it was sharp through out the whole bud. A bit more saturation may have also allowed all three to stand out a bit stronger against the white background. Seems a bit light overall. I think you have a great idea and basic setup here, a couple of tweaks could have made this image stand out even more.

Trading Post - Cool angle, great colors, good sharpness and an overall intersting model. Would like to see this postprocessed with the colors of the truck slightly exagerated. Good job.
