Thank you John, that truly means a lot to me. I can't thank you enough for getting the photography spark lit in me again. This is one of those shots that just works on so many levels, but I have to give credit to the lens, it had a wonderful FIRST owner that trained it how to capture these kind of images! ;)

edit to also say:

Thank you everyone for the wonderful comments and praise, I really appreciate it!

Off the Front

Great capture, meets the challenge well. My only suggestion is that I would have not cropped the bottom of the bike out.

Growing Wild

IMHO this is too tight a crop. Not enough negative space for the "out of focus" background / foreground to enhance the subject. Beautiful tones and tack sharp focus though make this a beautiful shot that you should be proud of.

Wonderful shot, love the soft focus in the foreground and background.

This really is a nice shot that meets the challenge. I like the tones and use of negative space. The one thing that bothers me is that the lower flower is cropped out. I would either crop it out fully or adjust the crop to have the second flower in frame.

This is more motion blur than bokeh IMHO. Still a nice shot that tells a story and has good tones.

I really really like this, I'm wondering how you obtained multiple focal points on the chains?

This shot is so bad ass I can't even begin to tell you! I gave this a 10 during voting and I have to say is one of my top favs from your work and on this site. AMAZING work!
