i love the green tones and hues in this - but I really feel this woudl have been a lot better if the angle was a little different - more to the left looking up toward the foursome.

beautiful green tones but the story of who is golfing and where they are headed is confused in this frame.

I can't really see whats going on... well, there playing golf obviously but the subject seems a little lost as my eye is drawn to a lonely white flag but maybe i'm missing the point. A very pretty shot though with beautiful shades of green in it.

Incidentally, golf as we know it today was invented by the Scottish and was a way for gentlemen to relax- hence the name GOLF; Gentlemen Only, Ladies Forbidden.

I like the green tones and the composition, and the title is really appropriate.
