beautiful processing, this looks almost 3 dimensional.

Bumping the contrast may have helped but I like the frame.

I like the color but the shot seems cluttered. I would have changed the angel to focus on a smaller area.

Good macro - I like the details, colors, and DOF. A square crop might improve this fantastic shot.

Congratulations Ingrid on a beautiful shot, I guess I'm not too surprised at the overall score, this type of shot just doesn't do well in the challenges which is a pity. Too bad more photographers on site dont appreciate something other than super-sharp, costumes, and over-satureated tone mapped colors. (Bit of a rant here, sorry) Again, beautiful shot and thanks for pushing DPC to look beyond "out of focus".

Sublime and very much overlooked, unfortunately. Lovely work Ingrid.
