Very appealing - more texture or sharper focus would have brought more to the 'party'. Perhaps more contrast or maybe more implied movement would have brought drama to help me personally like it even more. << 7 >>

The road

I'm sure you're getting tons of DNMCs on this - the thing is, it would have been really great to do the shot in this manner AND make it meet the challenge by placing something to make it look like it actually was on a table... a table top perhaps laid on the road. THAT would have brought in the element of humor & creativity.

Anyway, on to the letter of the 'law'...

It's decently executed, but not spectacular and it is missing overt interest - the clouds are nice, but it would have been more interesting to see more of the winding road, you know, winding off into the distance, maybe? That would have possibly been great use of leading lines for the clouds or even brought a central interest to the composition.

Well, I'm glad to see I wasn't the only one to mess up in the last few challenges! (see my Minimalism II score...) lol - I think we have a bit of synchronistic decision making going on, roz!

Tell you what, I'll race you to the brown!!! ha ha

I like this a lot - the composition is very appealing, the colors have this rich, yet muted duplicity & the border adds an element you wouldn't expect from a scene treated like this.

Nice tones on the leaves - a little more 'headroom', so to speak, would have allowed it to breathe more as it comes off as just a bit stifled. << 7 >>
