The bottom half of this image is absolutely superb. Great colors, composition. Then there's that bald white sky. Suggestion: Try a graduated neutral density filter. Another VERY MINOR point is to eliminate that tiny bit of red right at the base. Overall - excellent seeing and shooting -kepp up the good work.

I've walked around this lake many times. Great shot here as far as POV. How would it have worked with the trunk of the tree on the right showing? Or, the tree on the left not showing? Nice work.
whoa ... bring me salt now, before the sacharrine natue of this overwhelms me! Unbelieveably tweee and manufactured suburban scene - perhsp even the perfect definition of the concept. Wonderful evocation of thhe dreaful control of that environment though, the throttling of anything that ight subvert the control, even to the point of ensuring all the flowers grow in similar-coloured groups :-) The suggestion of perfect manicuring of the lawns, and you just know there isn't going to be a single mark on those cars :-) What a peculiar place ... and I really quite enjoy the threatening and awe-inspiring atmosphere of this shot.
great flowers and colors in the flowers. the poor sky really detracts from the picture, i don't know if you could have cropped it out a bit more but the front half is so great and the back half is so blah.
Beautiful line of flowers. I like to see more of the river/reflection off the river. It may have possible to use less DOF and blur the background out. Great vividness and clarity.
