the spoon and feather are beautiful, it is the background that is distracting for me. i would have preferd to see a simple plain colour used

The deserts's encroaching on these trees? Or it's moved past them and they are unearthed after a long time of being buried?

Dead Vlei is an old pan which has not had regular water since the river changed its course. Now it just has the skeletons of old acacias here, some of them well over 500 years old.

The colours here are fantastic, you have created a lovely image. For me rotating the image CCW about 1/3 of a degree would straighten the horizon, and avoid the distraction this causes.

The colours here are beautiful, and the framing used does draw ones eye into the image. I am one of those people who prefer their horizons to be horizontal, so I would like to see some rotation here and maybe a little less sharpening as those tell tale halos can be distracting.

That all being said this still captures my eye

The simplicity makes the image. I would prefer to see the string not leading right through the corner, A slighly different crop would fix this.

The return of an old favourite, this capture has a feeling of silk billowing in the wind.

The capture of the wall textures is beautiful.
