its a lovely dramatic black and white image ..
its interesting how ppl view our photos ..
usually i just go by a gut feeling .. does it speak to me .. do i feel awe .. etc etc .
if i was wanting to know your setup it would be only to reproduce it myself .. as a learning thing ..
anyway .. many congratulations on your ribbon .. :)

i love this one as much .. if not more .. than the other one you entered with the bee flying .. crazy the difference in the final score ..
i'm especially loving the tones in this one and how incredibly sharp and clear the bees are .. and of course the magic reflection .. i gave you a 9 btw .. was one of my very favs in the challenge ..
many congrats on the ribbon .. :)

just looking through the challenge and this one intrigued me as a thumb .. so i opened it ..
BLOWN AWAY .. !!! ..
i can imagine this could get the blue .. altho i havent opened any others yet .. but its so stunning and unusual and perfect in every way .. even the placement of the trees .. the shadows .. the colouring ..
its yelling out to be printed and hung somewhere ppl can truly appreciate it ..
so good .
i'm not voting yet . :)

this is such eye candy ... everything works .. and what a talent you have ..
ive never tried painting with light .. but you have created something so good ..
also .. how refreshing to have someone give you such a low vote and actually tell you why .. even if you and i .. and i feel many others .. wouldnt share his opinion ..
