GREETINGS FROM THE CRITIQUE CLUB

What a fine image. You really caught a perfect moment here and treated it carefully and well. You placed quite well in this really competitive Free Study. When I read the comments connected with this image, they were full of praise for the image, not so much for the border.

Well, if all that some perceived to be the matter with this image was the border, you certainly pleased your fellow DPCers. (FWIW, I think the border is just fine.)

About all I can say here is "congratulations on a really good, well presented image" and move on to the next image in the Critique Club queue.

I think you really over did the border. I love the shot but I feel like the border takes too much away from it. 6 with the border but I would have given it an 8 without,

Not sure how other voters feel about the border here, but I kinda like it. One of the rare cases where a border stronger on the vertical side works.
