The Final Out

Great catch...both of you! :-) You really got some nice rich tones out of your B&W conversion. Touch of sepia in there as well? Nice job!

I personlly think that this one would have earned you a higher score. It seems like the spider was too small for your camera to properly focus on, or it was getting confused on WHAT to focus on. There are a couple of things that really stand out on this image that I particularly like. The bokeh pattern in the backround is awesome, and gives the photo a wide range of tones aside from thos in the flower. The other thinkg I really like is that tiny bug sihouette on the stalk. It makes this photo very real instead of being something you set up on your kitchen table. Very nice work, and I'm sorry for being so long winded! :-)

I'm just going through this challenge now, and this is a FANTASTIC image. I'm not sure if a frog has a face or not, but the look on his is priceless. Great job!

I WON!!!!

Excellent colors in that background. Ive always been a fan of silhouettes! :-) The only suggestion I have would be to straighten that line of trees in the background. I thnk your subject would still be straight, even with the correction. Good luck!

The voters OBVIOUSLY did not understand the true meaning and story you've captured with this photograph. Stupid voters! And I certainly would have commented on it had I looked at it before today! :-)

(I try not to even look at the other entries until after voting, for whatever dumb reason! lol)
