The eye is emphasized very well, despite the other interest your drawn straight to it. Great photo!

(shudder) GREAT capture. The DOF is spot on. YIKES - not a reptile lover but this is excellent.

I love the idea behind this. I adore the curves and how well you highlighted them and brought them to attention. The lighting is very good (I wonder if more backlight might've brought those curves out even more? That's a legitimate question not a backhanded suggestion btw! :D ) I think the border is a little big, but it does help reinforce that nice horizontal line and bring the subject into higher prominence. The focus is good but there are areas where its soft along the flowers lip line. Finally I think the mottled background is great, but I wish it was uniformly green mottling rather than with that yellow streak and bit of light blue in the back. The various shades of mottled green make an excellent background. 8.

That is one AMAZING transformation from the original file. You are one of the most impressive photo editers I've seen on this site.

Thanks to all for the positive and complimentary comments.
This was just about a 2-click edit - levels down & saturation up.

At least my neighbor's wood shaving are immortalized forever... lol.
