Neat idea! I love the shallow DOF here, and the textures are wonderful. My only suggestion would have been to not cut off the edge of the leaf, since it is the subject. Otherwise, nice shot.

In my opinion, the border doesn't work very well here... but otherwise this is good. The cactus silhouettes are very interesting.

IMO the border doesn't really work so well here.. but the image itself is beautiful! I love the clean white feeling, and it portrays 'newness' well.

A New Perspective

IMO, the red fence is a little distracting, although I'm sure it was probably difficult enough as it was, trying to get this shot, without worrying about backgrounds. I would also suggest either exadgerating the tilt a little more for an even more unusual perspective, or just straightening the horizon. Just a thought. :) Neat capture!

A nice image. I like the soft smoothness of the blue hills in the background.

I'm not quite sure how this meets the challenge... unless it's new snow? I'm sorry. As for the technical points, it's a nice image. It would be neat to see the green a little brighter and more colorful, but the lighting is awesome!

I love it! The contrast between the silvery, cold moon, and the golden lights is enthralling. I only wish the reflection from the moon on the water couldn't be seen. It is difficult to make out what it is at first glance, and hinders the impact of the image a little. Lowering the camera might have eleminiated that... but I'm just getting picky. :) This is very neat!
