Very nice picture but the location of the text spoils it a lot for me. I think that in general the text should be outside of the picture or at least very low key...

A GREAT photo, but I think the placement and font of the text spoil it a bit.

Really cool postcard photo, title fits it well also. Detail is really good and I really like the way it does remind you of an old watercolor postcard.

What a great story. LOL. This was pretty funny. THe focus seems a bit soft on each photo though, more so in the very first photo on the way left. Lighting is quite nice, no annoying glares, or bad shadows. The angle is goos on the first 2, but I wish there were some way to not chop off the bolt heads in the far right photo. Overall a nice job! Good luck in the challenge.

Funny concept. But for this simple (and not inately interesting) of a subject, these macros need to be in sharper focus, and I would personally prefer more dramatic lighting or more contrast between subject and background. 5

Hi autool!

First off, let me say that I admire the effort you went through to get this picture - I love photographers that are willing to go that far to get a shot! However, this shot just doesn't do it for me. The idea and the intent is there, but the execution leaves some to be desired. I think the crop is extremely harsh in this picture and I would gladly have traded a few wind generators for more scenery. The way you've framed the flower with the other plants takes away from the flower itself. My eye tends to follow those up, but it's uncomfortable because they're so close to the edges, thus it makes the whole picture feel constrained to me. I wish the background was a bit fuzzier too, but that's just me...

Everything else is spot on. I love the colors you've captured here and the focus on the poppy is wonderful.

Love the concept, and the layout! My husband was looking at this picture, and he thought it was kinda "sexy". One nitpicky comment: I wish the little bolts in the picture to the right weren't "cut off".
