Comment by bob350:
For the crop, you have a nice balance with the tender shoots out away from the main part of the plant. This captures the curve of the lower curb, but with the disadvantage of a rather dull left upper corner. During shooting, moving a bit to the left might have been something to try. As it is, making a crop right where that chopped off stem ends could produce a nearly square image that takes better advantage of the upper curve behind the plant. Different, but not absolutely better.

I notice that you only registered this January, making you somewhat new. Navigating through your profile, I see a lot of pretty good comments not yet marked as helpful. People do notice that. Especially when you ask for help, you might consider clicking the "helpful" box under the comment as positive feedback to encourage the commenters, even if it is mostly just to acknowledge their effort (unless, of course, what you receive is really obnoxious or particularly unhelpful).

I can see that this was probably difficult to adjust contrast and saturation to suit all components. I think that you've done a great job of it. I like the image, and I think strawberries are great value for the way they fruit and flower. It is so pretty to have that progression.

What I find most interesting about this is that the plant is in a POT! I've never seen a strawberry plant not in the ground.

I think it's fascinating too...love the water; it adds a succulent texture to the image. I can see this as a kitchen print or something.

Lovely colors. In the thumbnail, I thought it was a brooch! This could be over in the "Fade to Black" side challenge.
