Greetings from the critique club. First let me say that I love the colors, background, the texture and the simplicity of this shot. Its a simple subject usually not doing so well on DPC but the take you have on this has set well with the voters. I think I might have bumped the saturation and the USM levels on this just a bit. Otherwise you did very well on this shot. Scored about where I would have in the challenge had I voted on it.
