I love the simple detail in the curve, and the subtle plant growing in the corener. This image's simple but textured background has a great contrast with the design lements that reward the viewer for taking more time than a quick glance. Well done.

A very interesting curve. Lighting is very good. The worn wood makes a lovely half frame and the leaves harmonize well with the wall and supply needed color. I would have preferred that a little more be cropped from the right hand side and either more of most likely less from the top.
This is beautifully photographed and composed. It's a pleasantly subtle take on the challenge and really nice. I like the little greenery in the left corner. It gives a nice accent to the piece.
