The deep rich tones are nice and I like the subject but it lacks a sharply focused area to draw iand hold my attention.

What a great photo. Feels like something I'd see on the walls of Starbucks. An intimate moment well imagined, captured and presented.

Hey there from the Critique Club

My thoughts on the image: I like it, but I don't think that it fits well into the landscape challenge. The toning is nice and I really love the interest that is contained within the capture. The processing is near-perfect for the subject matter. The various textures you managed to capture truly are amazing if you give your eye time enough to explore the image.

My ideas for improvement: As far as the image as it is, there are not many areas that I would alter the shot. I like the detail you capture, and the various textures paired with the array of leading lines keep my eye moving from one interesting item to the next. I would like to see the sky with more interest and better exposed. As it is, it does compete with my eye attention with the rest of the image.

Where I would have/did score this entry: I did not vote on the entries of this challenge, but my vote would have probably fallen the range of 4. I do see the rural setting well, but I have grown to expect more land in a landscape image.

Thank you for the opportunity to provide a critique on your entry,
Eric

Pretty cool looking. The colors and soft focus compliment each-other nicely. I think it would help to bring up the browns a little and maybe put it on a brown background.

You do know that the voters don't like images that are not in focus, right? lol

Where's the focus? Unfocused macros are just not very pretty to look at.
