And Langdon, I know how you feel. While I was not terrifically thrilled with this shot (I probably would have given it about a 6 or 7), some of the shots which I really liked and gave my highest ratings to, did astonishilgly poorly, finishing 37th and (gulp) 93rd! Go figure. I found myself saying the same exact thing about their photos. Well, I'm glad you and a few others out there liked it.
Great story. The top doesn't contain much of interest - maybe a longer focal length would have helped there, and also gotten rid of that little sliver of blow out sky at R. The dandelions draw the eye away from the minor annoyances, though. Very good.
I can imagine myself looking from the ground up in this shot. I feel like I'm in the frame. Good idea. Good exposure. Looks very natural. Nice work. I rated this shot high.
Cute idea. Somehow I think that I might like it better if the flower was closer to the wheel, and then less of the upper part of the tractor would be seen...
Ok.. I think I'm ready to comment on this photograph now :) Ya see... i work for Caterpillar, Inc. who may have been the maker of that monster truck in the background... But u know what? This is an excellent photograph and I like your interpretation of this challenge... Nice job!
Very nice! The depth of field is very effective, the colours and lighting are wonderful, and the framing of the two flowers is evocative. The photo with its title tell a little narrative and create a sense of tension.
I've looked at this twice now, and I've changed my first opinion of it :) I really do like the colors and the depth, and I was way too harsh on pictures for not having a sharp upward angle at first. Nicely done.
