Shez, this is really lovely! You are such a whiz with florals. What an eye you have. I must also add that you are superb with framing and choosing enticing titles. The bokeh is simply gorgeous here.

This is very cool. Excellent choice with the sepia! I like it without people. The clock is enough to add interest IMO.

Most interesting idea. There's something that feels just slightly off balance to me, but yet I love the idea and keep looking at it. You are definitely a creative guy - I love your netting photos too.

Deb, this is absolutely gorgeous! You ought to do a show of just your rain / umbrella photos. How did you process this, by the way? Did you use a gothic glow treatment? It is stunning.

Shez, I was so sure this one would ribbon! I was one of your 10's. I think it is absolutely fabulous, and so creative!

Koi

An interesting interpretation of the challenge, as koi are indeed the national fish of Japan and considered sacred by many who grow them. Fun factoid - the Japanese castle of old often sported koi tail decorations on the roofs - thougth to help prevent the outbreak of fire. As a photo, it looks a little grainy, though his face is quite nicely in focus. 6.
