Okay, I am SO giving this a ten. It's out of focus and noisy, but so was my brain when I was studying bio in college. ;-D

I like the angle of the entry better too, plus I think it looks more natural with her reading versus looking at the camera.

I remember something incredibly like this from a class a while ago; I don't ever remember doing mouse brains but I guess I did. Anyway, very VERY awesome photo and just perfect for this challenge!

Kingdom - Fungi, Genus - Agaricus, Species - A. bisporus

Comment:
I think bisporus would be the species and A is just the abbreviation for the genus? In any case the photo is very well done. I love all the detail, and the composition is very nice.

You should make this into a print. Peacock photos are really appealing. This one is one of the lovelier that I've seen. Such vibrant blues! Great composition and background as well.

I like the composition of this one better than your entry, but definitely like the entry's colors better.

YAY! Awesome xoxo's! Just a bit more contrast/brighter fruit would have helped this be even better.

Brush Barn

Regarding your photographer's comments - one thing that a lot of people will recommend is to not use the automatic feature on your camera. I had difficulty with this first but playing around with the manual settings gave me a feel for what types of changes had what effect. You can also try this tutorial for a beginning.

In the image I really love the red and gold tone - especially how the gold color spots on the barn are matched by the vegetation. It is a very lovely effect.
