I like this image. We call these "kappertjies". I really love the colors and textures of the leaves, although I don't personally feel that a repeating pattern meets the intent of the challenge brief of filling the frame with a subject.

Living in a warmer climate, it is always interesting to see these kinds of photos! Did you desaturate the image to make it feel like a black and white?

Curated Chaos

This hurts my OCD! I can't decide which hurts more... the missing cap... the color chaos... the random numbers...

Good use of DOF to draw the eye towards the center of the image.

Nice, sharp macro! It's always difficult to create depth in an image like this, where everything is essentially the same color.

this is such an interesting subject! The image feels a little flat though. Dropping a couple of stops on the aperture setting or adding some lighting from the side to create longer shadows, would have helped IMHO.

I like this image but feel it could have benefitted from a polarizing filter to remove (or at least reduce) the reflections.

1000 piece make one big circle

I like the colors of the puzzle and the subtle use of DOF. It feels like the white balance is slightly off, giving the photo a slight yellowish tinge. Also, while I understand you showed the edge, to demonstrate the circular form of the puzzle, the brownish bit at the bottom tends to draw the eye away from the puzzle itself.

Nice sharp focus overall. The tight crop works well for the challenge.
