I'd be curious to see the original before post-processing. It's a little over the top on the whites and highlights for my personal taste, but nice composition.

Nice looking horse. The duotone of this image to me does not do it well.

Great detail and sharpness in this. While I like the water drop, with only one, it feels a bit odd to me. I think either more water, or no water might be interesting as well. Nice job!

Beautiful animal but I'm not all that keen on the post processing.

On Your Marks

Zero comments:-( Wonder how often that happens.

Well, here is mine. I like the picture, but there are a couple of things that may have helped. Composition is good, as well as the lighting, exposure and contrast. What I think it needs, is a slight boost in color saturation. I also think the focus on the bud is a bit soft, so I just wonder if the sharp focus were on the bud instead of the leaves below how it would have done. The last thing is that the leaf that makes it look like it is sticking its tongue out is a bit distracting, wonder if you could have cloned it out. Hope this helps:-)
