Obviously not well enough, going by the many votes of 1 and 2 :)

It's a backlit closeup (macro lens), sunlight, handheld. It's turned 180 degrees. Same seeds that I've been using for a couple years for these pictures.

nice shot love it

A tribute to this photo perhaps?


It doesn't have the same lightness and airy feel but it's still very good.

nice job to recreate a classic DPC image
  Photographer found comment helpful.
12/19/2008 12:33:48 PM
I like this photo but i'm kind of confused about what is the object. Maybe a part of a flower with water drops...I see that is some bokeh on the right to, but again it isn't clear for me. Like the border and the efects you created!

ooooh, this is beautiful! the soft lighting really pulls it off. great job!

I like this. Your bukeh adds to the value of the picture - unlike most of the other photos in this competition.

Love the colors and textures. And its a beautiful composition.

Very delicate, good focus and composition.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

My fav. Reminiscent of ursula's work. Delicate and soft. Lovely.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

This is about as similar to at it could get, which annoys me a little. Not too much, though. This is a fantastic image, after all. I do wonder, though, if:
1. This is ursula
2. If not(1), then is this an homage, a copy, a crazy coincidence?
In the end, I guess I'll give you an 8. That's not too bad, right?
  Photographer found comment helpful.
12/17/2008 10:19:32 AM
Either Ursula or a remarkably good homage. Either way a 10.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
12/17/2008 09:46:23 AM
Looks like an Ursula (and I mean that as a high compliment). Really beautiful.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
12/17/2008 08:07:41 AM
This is gorgeous of course. I am going to assume that it is someone other than Ursula whose 'sweeping in the rain' is so very similar. Well done!
