This was my fav. shot in the challenge. I didn't get to comment during challenge but wanted to come back and make a point of commenting on this one. I love the soft color tones and small reflections in the water drops. So pleasing to the eye and so peaceful.
I am shocked.... totally shocked, as this one, was the one I thought would ribbon.....
I still love it, and have it as a "favorirte", because it is just "AWESOME".....
Why would anyone mark this as a score of "1", "2's", or a "3's", I have no idea....."Shame"..... is all that I can say.
I wish I could BUMP this one, but I have already given it a "10"..... Added this to my favorites as well.....
I think this is the "winning" shot in this challenge, and deserve the honor of the "BLUE" ribbon.....
Lovely use of "Bokeh" and also a great macro.
I especially love the waterdroplets, with the shinny blue reflections.....
This is a fine piece of work. It reminds me alot of Dax's work, which I am totally infactuated with. Refreshing, clean, crisp, and strong charachter. I'm totally sold on this one. GL.
Well this is just lovely. Beautiful soft colors, excellent patterns, great detail on the strip in the middle and both the blurred foreground and background just really help make the shot complete wihtout being overpowering or silly. This feels like an Ursula shot all the way. Excellent work and bumping up 1 for now. I will probably be back again to top it off.
This has an intensity yet it's soft. The rich vivid turquoise almost looks "off" if that makes sense. Not bad, but just "wow how did that intense blue green appear amidst the soft aqua and peach?" It's like the droplets are almost a touch too sharp. I've come back several times before commenting. Love the title. 7
