Springby RefocusedComment: This was one of my challenge favorites. I've seen many, many bird pictures, but rarely one where the combination of bird and botanicals are so exquisitely vivid and color-balanced. This would look amazing in an acrylic print. |

The End by vawendyComment: One of my top scores. I think the perspective is everything in this one, but the quality of the capture and precisely calibrated processing are what make the force of this image so irresistibly compelling. This feels like a true piece of fine art. |

Lilliesby NeatComment: Yeah, I heard the same "scream" Lydia did. LOL But I never get tired of these Zen-adjacent still life works from your catalog. Congrats! |

ARO PALACEby TiberiusComment: This one was among my favorites. The processing choices are quite inspired, in my book. They make the subject feel storied and timeless at the same time. |

C-u-tby kanajComment: Thanks for the great comments, everyone! I credit everyone I've learned from here for being able to achieve anything inspiring with a still life. I don't think I would have tried anything like this a year ago. :-) |
