A lot in this to keep the eye entertained yet it's simple. Nice exposure and sharp details. Color is well done. I'm no expert but I like it. 10.

And the Bridge Lead to
by Mona

Comment by Dibutil:
Nice photo for a postcard, but the bridge does not lead to anything! The road does and the bridge connects or separates. Even compositionwise I don't expect it leading somewhere - not much of the trails is visible and no direction is distinguished.

(I'm writing this to everyone who submitted a landscape shot) The challenge was to produce a shot worthy of a magazine cover but to me a shot like this is not suitable to be put on a "portrait" format magazine.

Nice capture of the dew though

---ADDITIONAL---
Due to forum discussions and accusations that marking landscapes down is nitpicking, I'm going through them and remarking. I still think some of the landscapes would not make good covers because of their orientation but I am no longer marking down because of that.
I still think landscape is inapropriate for the majority of magazines but I'll give the benefit of the doubt to the photographers.

A pretty macro with nice composition and nice use of shallow DOF. I love the blurred lines of the background and particularly the colours within them.
