The longer I look at this, the more I see. I confess that I am not voting (since I know nothing about Adams) - but I am commenting - because I am really enjoying the diversity of the entries. This photo is especially compelling and intriguing and wonderful to me.

I am not voting because I have no frame of reference for the challenge, but i AM looking....and I freaking LOVE this. the soft whispiness of the clouds - the stark contrast to the wood - I really just adore this.

Matching Pair

I actually loved this one - symmetry on so many levels - maybe not identically symmetrical, but color-wise, shape-wise, and a really good yin-yang feeling to it. I felt symmetry of spirit in it - which is maybe reading too much into it, but it still felt good. Such a beautiful shot, and I agree with the framing being awesome.

I loved this - it was actually in my top 5 as I thought it captured the challenge perfectly. Symmetrical, and yet not identical. It's a wonderful shot - and you had a great vote from me!

This was one of my favorite, if not the favorite, flower shot - it's just vibrant and wonderful and crisp. Loved it - well done!

I think it's an absolutely gorgeous portrait - it isn't something that FOR ME epitomizes "spring" in a traditional / non-traditional interpretation. But I keep coming back to it - if this is a client, I would think they were ABSOLUTELY thrilled with the result - if it's a self-portrait, HOORAH sister! Just wanted to share that - because I LOVED it from an artistic perspective, even if it wasn't one of my top votes for "spring"

In my top 3 - I expect it will do exceedingly well - very whimsical but still technically awesome.

I really love this photo - it's in my top 5 - I have to tell you, though - it looks like the rain is faling upwards. Which added to the overall interest of the picture. Just really liked it - and I thought it was a great representation of the challenge.
