Hot photo! Very nice capture and great colors! The sun/sky are just how they should be. Very nice Roxanne!

Comment by blindjustice:
texture; contrast; this is one hell of a shot. so flowing and abstract; so detailed. I like how the light hits the ripples but still does not make you aware of the angles or pull you fron the abstract.

Perhaps seeing edges on a whit background with more light and contrast would be an option.

All in all a really interesting shot.

I'll bet he thought he looked hot - men have a way of deluding themselves - that's why you seen giant beer bellies in swimsuits - and stuff like this.

Thank you for the comment on my image and using it as an illustration of an idea in the thread Floating leaves color on color. Hypothetically, had you entered this, I would likely have given this a 3, maybe 4. Main reason being how I interpreted the Challenge "Take a picture of a colored subject or subjects on the same color background.". The natural coloring of these leaves is so 'busy' that perhaps 'extracting' just one of the colors from within it and using that as the background color may have worked better (or vice versa). Still wouldn't have "met the Challenge" in my opinion, as I see primarily pink, green and cream/yellow. The only other main detractor is the focus/definition seems slightly lacking. The dof and use of it is good though, in my opinion.edit:removed 'TN'

Again, a great exposure to capture a beautiful sunset. Good lines in the water leading you through the shot out to the vastness of the big blue. I wonder what this might look like using a secondary light source to illuminate the beach? Wonderful shot Roxanne, as always!

This shot works in so many ways. You've composed it well and exposed it wonderfully, I like how the reflection makes this look like the ship is sailing on a sea of lava. The tones really set this off in the viewers eye. I can only imagine what this would look like as a print.

WOW! This is an amazing study in b/w Roxanne! I really like how you composed this with the leading line drawing my eye through the frame and out to the lines of the leafs. This has such a "smooth" feeling to it, I think I could almost touch it!

what a cool picture! I love how sharp the bird is, you could even use this for future projects, it looks like the heron would be easy to extract
