New Branches from nothing

With a different POV this might be more interesting. As it is its a little flat. Colors okay, but focus seems to be on dirt/mulch rather than plant.

The lighting and tones work together but the image as a whole seems out of focus or neat imaged. For me the effect overwhelms the image. 6

interesting POV. Lighting okay but I wish DOF were a little larger to include some of pipe under house. tones work.

beautiful rendering/colors. Lighting good - great timing. Crop/composition good. DOF excellent for subject. 8

Where Streams Meet

while the image is unique in the challenge and the grass is rendered well, the composition as a whole is rather static. Throw in a bird or moving water or a tractor and it would be much more interesting. POV, DOF good for subject.

atree with something! yahoo! Sorry - lost it there for a minute. Very well done - daring on her part. Composed well (I can imagine you egging her out further ;) Colors and lighting make the image. 8

I'm giving you an 8 because I think this image is well done - the lighting, composition, crop, DOF, POV, all work for me. However, If there had been a figure in the window, maybe studying or walking or anything, I probably would have given a 10. It would have added something dynamic to a technically well done but lifeless image.
