Too bad you weren't able to get closer to the climber, because I think this could've been very powerful. Technically, it looks pretty good. If it were my image, I might crop just to the right of the climber, near the bushes. Might help bring him out a little more.

Great! What perfect composition - every bit of it contributes to your message (excuse the pun). This is my favorite of the 20 or so images I've voted on so far and likely to be my fave of 'em all. Good job.

This is a powerful picture. The light is quite harsh, but maybe that's what you were after to emphasize the harsh life. I can imagine that black & white might work well in this image.

Worth the wait

Is this one of those special flowers that only blooms once every so many years and then it lasts for one day? I think I read about some kind of flower like that. It definitely looks worth the wait! I might prefer sharper focus on the center and possibly some paper or something behind the flower to avoid the blown highlight issue. The colors are gorgeous.

I like the idea very much, but there are some technical difficulties, such as the blown highlights, that are hard for me to get past.

Such a sweet child, Judy. This is powerful indeed. You're whacking us all in the heart with these cancer survivor images. I hope they continue to be called cancer survivors always.
