A big credit has to go to Mary Anne Radmacher-Hershey, who is the author of the quote. I didn't know at the time who the author was, therefore the credit line does not appear on the poster. I apologize for that.

Photo of a weeping willow in front of our building. It's pretty boring scene during the day, but at night and through fog, it takes on this magical look.

I totally love the shot, and your layout, but do not care for the font much-still, the shot is so good that I'm not letting that affect the score.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
01/04/2004 09:25:53 AM
Very nice! On thing right of I do not like is the square format. where you just showing a cute photo or did you see a thought behind this?
  Photographer found comment helpful.
01/04/2004 06:11:09 AM
this is a gorgeous photo ;}

a bit more detail on the upper branches would be nice, but very nice as is...
  Photographer found comment helpful.
01/03/2004 11:04:34 AM
One of the top shots! Excellent quote, nicely spaced and placed. Photo isn't as tied to the title as it is to the quote - that tension had me read the quote again and reflect - just what you want a motivational poster to do. 10

Great detail and color. Gives a nice peaceful feeling that matches the quotation well.

stunning photo, but ihmo the words don't match the photo.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
01/01/2004 04:46:36 AM
Wow. This image is incredible enough on its own - but encased in that nice thick black border the image really pops. Nice font selection, as well.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

beautiful photograph, and wonderful use of text
  Photographer found comment helpful.
12/31/2003 07:09:16 AM
This is an awesome shot, the border is great...really adds that touch needed to give this "that poster" look. Love the motivational message this is a winner to me 10

This is beautiful and the image, although quite generic, fits very well with the motivational message. Font, font colour and font size work well. A great poster.

the image and title don't go together. But the images is great. 10
  Photographer found comment helpful.
12/29/2003 08:39:11 AM
Nice photo, but I don't think that the title and text are quite succinct enough. The image needs to be more strongly related to your theme.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
12/29/2003 02:41:32 AM
Gorgeous! I like this one very much. A "10"
