Wow! I think this photo is way underrated. That shadow is beautiful! I'm really surprised that it didn't score much much higher.

Good job Shez!

Lovely color and focus on these three. I agree about the background and shadows. You could try cloning the shadows out (I did it on some of my clown SPs) - it's a pain in the ***, but I was surprised at how much better it looks when it's done. ;-) It's a great shot as is, so either way you win.

Ya know, I think I prefer this to the negative version. Not exactly sure why, but believe it or not this seems more "natural". LOL! The lines are still great, but the color tones here seem to flow a bit better and are more soothing to my eyes (of course, I'm a big purple fan anyway - pun intended)! Great job!

Has the feel of a Van Gogh painting. Wonderful.

Sherpet, your eye for flower abstracts just astounds me. You cause me to look at flowers a whole different way. Bravo. This needs to be hanging in a gallery somewhere.

good idea, playing with that cool rippling light effect. could have been done better though, with stronger comp.

Congrats on your 15th placement and a new top 2 score for you. I figured this would have done a bit better than it did (not that 6.5 is anything to complain about). I prefer this one over your third highest rated pic. With more lines visible and the striking green this is a powerful shot (not that the other isnt - this one I just prefer more). Should have placed higher. Great job once again.
