it's wierd, when i was thinking of what would be a good shot for this challenge i pictures almost exactly this. WHere did you actually find what i dreamed of? I must know! I think the picture is awesome but I would have liked it from a slightly different angle to get rid of the thing at the top left. It just doesn't seem that well balanced. I would have stayed there all day and shot photos. I'd love to see all your outakes when the challenge is over. great job.
This "patchwork" has an excellent mix of vibrant colors, a well placed subject, and good DOF. The cropping (or the angle of the original shot) seems strange but it's a good case for trying the unusual ... sometimes it works out exceptionally well as in this case!
