Very cool light on this plant, I like how it just hits the top of the plant. a reflector might have helped fill in those shadows on the left side. I just notice your file is only 35 kb, you can use up to 150 kb, which would make the small detail edges much smoother and less jaggedy. IF you have PS take a look at this tutorial for getting your images ready for challenges. Its a very cool shot but I feel you may lose points simply because if the file size(image quality) and not the image.

I would have liked to see the entire flower in very sharp focus with the blurred background.. The leaves off to the right are a tad bit distracting because the are so out of focus compared to the left side.. imho 6

Day 30 - The Icy Lake

This reminds me of a favorite time when I lived in Minneapolis, MN and skated across and all over Lake of the Isles one winter. It was a particularly cold fall and the lake froze over with a glassy smooth surface. What a thrill to skate around the islands in the lake that I'd only seen from the shore on many walks around that lake.

Thanks for the memories. I really like this image and wouldn't change a thing. This is a fitting way to end a challenge like this. As the sun sets we all know we've done our best.
