"Foliage" is an excellent addition into the Abstract challenge, and I am very glad to see you finished in the top 10%. Just thumbing through the challenge I remember this thumbnail sticking out. The frame is so full and bright it demands attention. The detail of this close up is amazing. The little spider enhances this shot, it is what clued me into what the shot was of. I think when voters have to stop and try and figure out what we are looking at is a prefect fit for an abstract. The contrasting colors of the leaves give so much depth as opposed to leaves that were just one color. Also the edges separate the image from a boring run of the mill close up. Personally I don't see anything I would change or recommend trying. I personally would be extremely proud of this piece if I were you. Good work. |

Sure, I know these are leaves, but the color and composition are not leaf-like, they are your own. And quite beautiful! |

cood contrast of colors. Perhaps a bit larger DoF would ahve improved it, but good work. |

8 - Very nice. Good true color. Like the spider. Difficult foliage to shoot, especially hand-held. Criticism (somewhat difficult with abstracts); Bottom left corner cropped a fraction tighter would have made it even better in my opinion. Perhaps also sharper/more definition, but again difficult, and may also detract from the 'abstractness'. |

I like the way you can tell what this is, yet its a whole different viewpoint almost. The only two things that bother me are the little bit of dead leaf at the right and the spider shape in the center. Once I saw those two things it almost started to detract from the softness and flow of the lines. Still, I like this one... a 9 :) |

I am going to try to predict what it is for each photo: Yours is ....a plant. |
