The focus makes this image very busy....I don't know if that is a good thing or a bad thing...I haven't come to terms with some of the focus quailities that digital images have.

Great picture. But the flowers are the focus of the picture and not the Abandoned building.

Hey, WAY TO GO! You have made a little abandoned looking building, amidst 497 others, absolutely beautifulwith these tulips! This picture is so striking! Definitely sellable! Good luck!

The colors are truely stunning bot for me personally I don't think the image fits the challenge as well as some others. Good photo in general though.

Stunning...the withered building is a unusually great compliment to such a beautiful field of color.

while the image is great I don't get the feel of the building being abandoned. I think there is too much of the foreground that draws from the building. Good effort and gerat picture otherwise.

Nice, I would not have cropped this tight on the top...

Oh, my! To heck with the building - the tulips are gorgeous!

Nice tulips

what a cool shot. Unfortunately the tulips distract from the focus of the challenge.

Too beautiful. 9

Although the tulips are beautiful, for this challenge, personally I would like to see more of the building itself.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Would have liked to see a tighter crop to eliminate the house on the right. Nice colors in the flowers, but I think the focus should have been on the building rather than the (admittedly very pretty) flowers.

Great subject, but the flowers are too big part of the image
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 04/13/2005 06:33:05 AM
This seems to be more about the tulips...nice picture though.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Altho a somewhat nice photo the clarity is off. Beautiful colors but the focus takes so much away from the natural beauty of the shot. The building you have chosen doesn't look abandoned but out of place with the flowers. God luck with this challenge.

Lovely picture, the tulips are beautiful. However, it seems to be more about the tulips than the abandoned building.

JUST! ONE WORD!!! WOWWWWW!
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Excellent focus maintained for this deep pic -- love the colors, but needs more of the buildings.
