Friking awsome. This is perfect for the other challenge as well, unexpected.

Im not scared, I will jump in there and wrestle that gator anyday. Definately Green thats for sure, you definately get all those points. Something isn't making it popout though. For me just one of those photos that stays right above average. GL. Maybe a gradient on each side if that is allowed would of gave this more stand out potential.

The color looks more gold than green to me.

I'm really sorry, I must have overlooked yours when I commented on Still Life.

This definitely deserves the top 10 place it received, its very crisp and well-lit, and fits the challenge very well - it keeps to the traditional style of still life but with more original content then fruit and wine (eg).

The red b/g complements the green perfectly, and this contrast makes the colours pop. I like the composition, with the reel in the bottom right and the bait/float thingies (you can tell I don't fish!) in the top left, but I'm not entirely sure about the positioning of the rod in the middle - it looks a bit awkward and central, but I'm not sure where it would be better.

Lighting is very good, but I'd like to see a bit more light (or dodging if advanced ed) around the right-most two floats.

Other than that, there's not much I can say except congrats on the top ten, and new image on your profile page.

This is a great image, evocative of rhythm, that uses the artificial tilt caused by photographing "upwards" objects to great effect. Everything from the full depth of field to the sharpness, shadows, and colour work excellently. I think that side of the building that's in shadow works well to contrast with the highlighted area in middle, and the lighter tones at left. The sky has a great dark to light gradient that really satisfies. Well done.

great still life, composition, color and lightins is very good, but the small piece of white cloth in the lower right corner is a bit destracting, I think the image would have been stronger without it.
