Absolutely beautiful composition and color tones. Love the textures too. The lighting may be a tad on the harsh side, but I think all-in-all it's a fantastic shot and one that I would be proud to display in my portfolio. Truly magnificent capture.

I have to disagree too - the blur is perfect against the great focus and intensity of the subject in the background. Another great job. Wow... You make me sick at times! LOL (In a good way I guess!) Fantastic capture - even when you're not at your best you're better than most (which I think is the part that makes me sick - LOL). :-)

Great job!

Love the lighting & processing here! You've managed to turn something very ordinary into something quite extraordinary. The color tones are marvelous and I can almost smell the leaves. Great job.

Love the backlighting on the trees and clouds - almost wish you could have brought out more color on the balloons though. The clipped right balloon is a bit of a distraction, but I'm nitpicking here. ;-) Still a fantastic shot. Really great capture!

The Power of Life

WOW... Here's a shot where I think the centered subject works quite well because of the off-balanced weight of the waves crashing against the breakers. Beautiful tones and power. Terrific shot.
