What Is It

I was just reading an article on photographing the ground, and how most people miss a great deal of beauty in it. You seem to have learned to apreciate it it! This is a great texture shot. Awesome composition, as the photo seems to draw the eye in through positioning of the colors. Not always an easy task with textures...

What an eye you have! The organic feel the curves and colors give off in this shot is wonderful. It has the same kind of touch as a soft painting. DOF seems to be spot on as well!

I love the colors in this one. However, I find the yellow of the grass in the bottom of the shot is slightly too bright. Great use of complimentary colors! I actually like to see the tree where it is, as its branches perfectly frame the building in the background. Beautiful shot!

You have such amazing talent. The curves in the picture are fantastic. It also has a natural framing on the top and bottom, which I love.

I would move the tree to the right futher as the branches extend to the the left and lead you to the picture. putting the tree at one third doesn't work as great here.
the right of the tree doesn't add much and is a distraction IMHO

Again this one has some noise, edges aren't very clean.... as in previous comment, do post exif to check what was the problem

Comment by gaurawa:
the colors ( though a bit oversatured) are nice. the photo does lack clarity and details. Its noisy and smudged. Can you post the exif ? I feel it has to do with camera shake or high iso.
the center divide doesn't work for me. the top sky doesn't offer much. you would be better off with croppoing the top part just above the dense clouds...

I really like the curves and colours here, which are really nicely complimented by the black lines. These darker lines really give the shot a nice substance and make it look like a painting :)
