Wow, no comments during voting. You get this special ribbon to use on your profile page, if you want it.

I like your photo a lot, the b&w conversion is very nice, and I think the use of partial color is perfect for this. Without it, the boy could have blended into the background. I like the curve of the bridge with its lines leading right to the focal point. And there is a lot of nostalgia in the shot. Really very nice. It's the sort of image that asks you to stop and stay awhile -- unfortunately voters here don't do that.

Wonderful shot. Didn't view or vote on this during the challenge but i would have scored it high. Also agree that you could have lost the label though.

Really odd that this beautiful image received so many 1 votes. I'm going to put it in the Posthumous Ribbons thread.

P.S. I do agree that the label detracts from the rest of the image. I think it could be cropped out without compromising the composition.

This wasn't one of my favs. I agree, it is a weak image.

Thanks, Julianne. I have some photos from our mountain weekend last weekend, but with moving Thburs, I'm not sure I'll have time to do anything.

Wow, that flower jumps right out of the image. Marvelous focus and DOF.

P.S. I hope you've saved something wonderful for the May Free Study.

This looks wonderful in IR. I have tried so many time to take a good photo of that path, and they have all been worthless. I think I am usually going the other way though. I'll have to remember to turn around more often. :)

I like the subject. The green lines across the grass seem unnatural and draw my attention away from the helmets. I think without the foreground fence, this would have been a stronger image.
