See, here's the difference between soft focus and out-of-focus. Beautifully done soft focus rose. Perfect lighting and exposure.

The flowers and produce are clear and sharp but the people are all a blur - wonderful shot! I can't wait to find out how you did it. Excellent composition.

Wow, I bet this looks amazing at full size. The concept is fabulous and the colors and lighting are amazing. I love how the light seems to burst out from the puzzle globe. I can't tell it's a world globe but it works even it wasn't. I love your choice of background. This is a great art piece. My first 10 in this challenge. It's HOT!!

Fly Fishing - Yellow Elk Hair Caddis

Is that a fishing reel in the background? I don't know if I like it or it bugs me but the fly is wonderful. Perhaps rotating the cork so that it's parallel to the edge of the photo would make it better for me. Excellent macro!

Oh My Sweet Goodness! Is this the most wonderful vision! Look at that little paw up in the air and the tail too. I would have liked just a little more light on the kitten on his/her upper right quadrant but it's still a wonderful photo.

At Last Spring

Beautiful - wonderful detail and lighting. I love the way you composed the shot with the flower face down. And, the lovely, refreshing water drops are a nice touch. I think that you would have been better off with a white border rather than the off-white but I don't make down for borders, it's just a suggestion.

Very interesting photograph but quite dark. If you could bump up the ocntrast a little it would be better. Everything seems to just blend together. How did you get this close to the Elk?

Color Matters

Very nice stock photograph. I would llike the lines sharp all the way down and the background whiter but it is a great idea and perfectly composed.

One doesn't usually think of a pagoda being covered in snow, It's a very interersting shot. It's tilted to the left and that bothers me some but I love the setting.
