Congratulation on your ribbon. It is well deserved. I have seen a lot of dead braken in my lifetime, but never saw the beauty you captured here.

A warm image which undulates with untold grace lines and then subdued colors to tease the aesthetic senses. Superb! Congratulations on your Blue.

This is a very breathe taking image. I have looked at it during the challenge, but did not comment. I love the softness of that it displays, which says you have a good eye, along with timing. Great work.

I'm trying to decide where I would hang this one in my house. Definately a wall hanger. I think its the tones, mood, depth, and of course bokeh, that are just simply amazing. Very cool, well done. Way to go with balancing it so perfect. GL.

My second favorite photo in the challenge. I like the smooth bokeh and the monotone color type. It makes the image. It is like a high quality B&W, but in color. 8.
