I like your concept here and the beautiful greens you captured here. But my feeling is too much of the phot is blurred.

I like your concept here -with your wooden man peeking out through the foliage. I feel like it would be a stronger picture if you had also gotten the leaf in the upper left more sharply focused. It is such a prominent feature in the photo that it is distracting.

Love your picture of the copper beetle (I think that is what they are called.) Great detail and well composed. I like your choice of depth of field - your bug is nicely focused and the rest nicely blurs out. However, I think this photo is more focused on the bug than the botany -not meeting the challenge very well.

This is a lovely macro. You have great detail on the bee and lovely focus on the center of the flower. However, I feel like the focal point of the picture doesn't match the challenge.

Hit return accidentally - I'll try again. You've got hot spots on your leaves in the foreground and your sky is washed out indicating that this was overexposed. I have found forest shots with greens work better underexposed - makes the greens deeper and richer. Forest pictures also work better on cloudy days when the light is spread more evenly.

This was certainly one of my favorites in this challenge. Love the colors and the beautiful way you captured these irrigation pipes! Way to go!

I really like this one. From your point of view, the building seems to go on forever! I also like the contrast between the straight lines of one building and the more curved lines in the reflection!

Very very nice!
