"Be careful with your equipment this week as you search out your best photo of rain." Sorry, but I don't see any rain here. It's a good shot and I love the colors & focus, but...

Attractive image - a little dark. Still, nice focus & DOF.

Shot has possibilities, but OOF really detracts from shot.

Cute shot & girl. The graininess of the image is a little distracting and her mittened hand looks overly large. Still, a nice shot.

Wings over Water (Siberica Iris)

Something about this shot doesn't seem quite right to me. It's got great color and I like the composition. Good focus & DOF too - so I'm not quite sure what it is... (Sorry I can't be more specific. Maybe it's the odd color glow in the background?) Still, a pleasing and good image.

EDIT: Ya know - I think I figured out what bothers me about this shot. It's that the background color too closely resembles the beautiful colors on the petals. It's a lovely shade of pinks & whites, but the fact that the background is saturated with essentially the same tones, it makes the whole color less dramatic. (If that makes sense...) If the background were darker, it would really allow the colors of the petals to shine on their own - so to speak. Make sense?

Great perspective and a truly lovely shot. I wish I could see the duck's entire reflection though.

Handheld? And you got that kind of focus? I'm impressed. Great shot!

I agree that this shot has a lot of potential. The rocks and colors could use a bump or two IMHO. The water is great - no blown highlights.

Looks like the same little girl that's in a color shot. I like the composition a lot, but the blown highlights are a distraction.

Very appealing image, but the graininess of the background is distracting. The fact that you caught the water droplet mid-air is very cool though. I also think you could bump up the color a notch.
