Marac!!! Dude, this is not just my favorite shot of yours, but it was by far my favorite shot in this challenge. 26th place is cool, but this one deserved much higher.

26th!? arrrghhh!! This deserved top 20 for sure, and higher than that in my own rankings. the depth of color and tonal range is just so lovely, and the focus is dead on. even better because it's something you found already out there rather than having to create in a studio. excellent work, in any case.

VEry good! Nice contrast, great reflections. Enjoy the dark feel-sort of like the calm before the storm. Really causes a strange interest in this shot Well done and deserves a ribbon finish>

What a striking photograph!

Complementary colours are pairs of colours that contrast strongly when compared to each other. Unfortunately, the yellow colour you show on the leaves on the right hand side of the photo is not the complementary colour to the red on the leaves on the left... you would need to have a more blue-green tone on the right to achieve the complementary pair of red/green, or a more blue-violet hue on the left to achieve the complementary pair of yellow/violet.

Regardless, this is a superb close up photograph, and I admire your skill in arranging the composition, despite the fact that it didn't meet the requirements of the challenge.

This image would be more powerful had it been BW. I think the colors ditract from the austerity of the setting. Mother Nature can be vicious at times.
