This is a great image. Nice colors, perfect DOF, fantastic composition. If I had to complain about anything, it would be the appearance of slight oversharpening (halo's around the bench) followed by a bit too much NeatImage. Like I said, "appearance of" - I have no idea if this is really the case. This is my favorite image in this challenge. I hope you do well. 10

One of the criteria for this challenge is "Creativity is the Key" so my scoring will be based on this. this image has an almost painted look. I love the inclusion of the tree branch to balance out the cloud. The tones are rendered well. POV, DOF, composition, focus all done well. A lot of empty sky but I don't think it hurts the image. 8 - good luck in the challenge!

Nice Shot. Has a real "dream" feel to it. Maybe the best one I've seen so far - 8

I like the subdued colors. Nice composition and perspective. The clouds are wonderful. It has a leading lines quality that takes your eye to the back of the photo. The gazebo is a nice visual touch. Good one.

I like this . . . only suggestion I might make is to allow more space between the bench and the gazebo. They almost look to be merging. Great colors and framing.
