Congrats. Great lighting. Wondering why there were some low votes there. I don't think you can get any more Rule of Thirds than that.

Btw, I see you are no longer in the 7 score but no ribbon club. Double congrats!

Congrats Larus. Had I seen this during the voting stage I would have known it was you.

Love the execution. Not that I'm implying it but I think it would be funny if you extended a few more heads and then in the last one have a small pea in it. :P

Great, great choice on the black and white! Nothing against the color version but the black and white just enhances the tones and mood of the image so much better.

Great sky. I also like that silhouette although I could do without the person in the shot.

On the Flip-Side

Strange angle but it seems to work well due to the strong lines in the image and that triangle in the lower right corner, which anchor subject perfectly. I would love to see this angle used with a tree that lean more in one direction which you could further enhance using this technique.

Very interesting tree and field, which you composed perfectly I must say. Overall I like the processing but would have liked a tad darker blacks and also not have those faint halos in the tree. It's not really noticable except where it contrasts against the darker elements in the background. Maybe just clone that out. Otherwise, great image with good subtle detail throughout.

Very clean and sharp. Good color and the composition works perfectly. I don't think this particular subject could have been shot any better. Good luck!

I love that subtle lighting in the foreground. The only thing I can find fault with this is I wish you used a shallower DOF to minimize that background some more. I'm wondering if you could have removed that one building since this is advance editing.
