I love the composition in this photograph. The natural framing of the tree branches around the top and the wheat (?) along the bottom is terrific. I would have been very tempted to not even add an additional border...

Country Summer

I like the imagery in this photo. Both play and work. A couple comments... if only the camera was level and not tilted to the right, it wouldn't feel the picture is falling over. And it looks a little over-processed to me in the tree leaves... maybe it is just an artifact of the down-sizing for web display. Nice composition though.

Summer Dreams in the Country

Nice capture of the butterfly in flight... and the bee on the flower! But it just doesn't say "Country Life" as well as some of the other photos.

Nice use of IR filter. Very "moody" look.

Nice composition. The blue in the mountains looks a tad unnatural though.

Life in Western North Carolina

Interesting composition! It looks over-sharpened to me though, and the "halo" between the horizon and the sky is very "unnatural" looking. Otherwise, nicely done.

To the Kitchen Garden

The foreground lighting is just a little too dark in my opinion. A little fill-flash on the camera would have helped give some detail to the arbor and the fence that MIGHT have improved the composition.

The color cast in this photo is too yellow in my opinion. Other than that, this "corner" had lots of potential as a subject matter for this challenge.
