This is beaurtiful. Your ability to capture movement with such a crisp focus shows an artistic eye and a masterful touch. Really captivating. An easy 9
This is a very pretty photo...I love the muted colors, the faint outline of trees in the background and the "texture" in the foreground. Very well thought out composition
This is the most beautiful of all the field shots in this challenge. I love the contrasting colours and DOF between the backdrop and the yellows. Really beautiful composition. Would make an excellent print 10
This is the best of the pampas grass (and variations on theme) entries. You win the Pulitzer prize for Best Grass in Inconsequential Photojournalism.
What I particuarly find fascinating about this entry is the backdrop of white trees. A nice counterpoint to the detailed and well exposed foreground subject.
Revisiting. The subtle interplay of light and shadow is quite remarkable. Bumping up.
I love this shot! The muted colors and hues are just so appealing to me and they blend together well. It's both sharp and yet soft. The lighting is wonderful, the fog or smoke in the background adds mystery. I dont see any faults whatsoever.
