very nice - I can imagine how much work and craftmanship went into this piece. Nice choice of colors as well.
Thanks for showing us!

I wouldn't have thought to shoot in this aspect ratio for this. I think it works nicely to create flow and rhythm within those patches. Quiltwork (or patchwork, I guess?) is a big part of the immigrant heritage here in central Texas; you can see little squares painted on signs all across the countryside indicating families' identification with Czech-Germanic-Wendish heritage. So this one brought a smile for me.

Nice shallow DOF shot. Maybe just a notch or two down the F scale would sharpen that top level of leaves.

Excellent picture. I have seen this one a million times and it doesn't seem to get old. I'd love to see someone take it from a different perspective. I'd love to see the camera pointed at the child from the front with the focus on the dandelion using a shallow depth of field where the child is a bit out of focus and the bits blowing off the bloom are out of focus in the foreground. Maybe I'll have to add that one to my own to-do list at some point.... This is my favorite of the challenge. Excellent choice for black and white.

Such detail and hard work goes into quilting. A top pick for me, great image.

I like this and the concept. The sun in the frame takes away from the pleasing aspect of it a bit.

Bold use of editing tools. Not quite sure if I like it or not yet.
