************

I'll be amazed if this scores 5.5+, but I had a really hard time doing anything for this challenge that pleases me. I would not even have entered if it weren't for League of Death. I do like this image a lot, but expect the voters to pan it.

It's very static in a challenge that more or less demands a more dynamic interpretation. Your flowers are one of the highest-finishing "static" images in the challenge.

scalvert: there's nothing natural about teenagers.

frisca: that's more of a strut than a stroll. I think a strut is less natural than a stroll.

L2: only humans stroll. I saw that on PBS.

ursula: that color ain't natural. It's pretty, though!

sher: natural beauty. let's go with it.

Nice composition but the all-over orange doesn't do much for me

This is entirely too orange for me. I'd like to see some separation of the sky and the water colors from the orange to blue.

Good Effort

I love the seven people walking it just looks to orange

Succeeds but doesn't inspire. Maybe I should be more excited about orange? Did the trick anyway.

Nice shot, I wish the guy started all the way at the end. Nice orange color.

If there's one thing this challenge has taught me, it is that if you crowd ten copies of one person next to each other it doesn't look like one person doing something - it looks like a crowd standing there. You've got the nice colors and everything here, but spacing this guy out would really add to the sense of vastness and serenity. All jammed up like this, his presence adds an unwelcome sense of business to that area of the image.

Nice image, but the content just doesn't strike me...

A good example of time lapse, but lacks some WOW power.

the orange seems a little unnatural

Nice color and the comp is great, but the individual is soft of OOF. 6.

the orange is a tad overdone, IMO
