Sand Trails

Simply beautiful. Like the composition and the grains of sand that show so clearly. My only complaint is the hot spots on the small pebble and the rock in the back. But this is still a 9 for me.

Wonderful long wide angle with sharp focus all the way back. I also like the big rocks that appear to be large granuals falling off into the distance. This is one of my top choices.

Clever to have the sand appear to fly to the side.

The splash of an apple

Hi Iarus. Loved your response to the person who did not like water shots. You are a gracious person and obviously self-confident and easy-going. Good for you. Your photograph was wonderful and deserved to win the ribbon. I congratulate you. As a "one shot wonder" - at least so far - I hope you will win many more ribbons. I won one on the second challenge I entered and haven't won one since. ;-) Ah well. But we all keep doing this because we love it and it is fun. And the challenge helps focus our photography on new unexplored topics and to stretch our boundaries. To me that is what you did when you tried the splash shot. And it worked very well. The clear focus and bright colors worked perfectly. Keep up the good work. Regards, Ann
