I never got to this picture because there were just sooooo many photos in the challenge, but I would have given it a 10. This is wonderful. I just love it. Everything about this photo is perfect.

Oof, guilt is a terrible thing. At nearly 4:00 am, I decided that I had told myself that this was my last pic to vote on for the last time and this was the pic that I finished at.

I hang my head in shame that I couldn't have just clicked one more 10....

I really like the colors here. From the flowers to the stems to the sky to the mud, everything looks wonderful.

Well done.

Nice clear simple love it 10

Wow, wonderful depth of field! perfect focus, exposure, composition, color...
my only suggestion would have been to stand up just a hair so the head of the tulip is surrounded by green.

Interesting crop for this shot, works the thirds and centred ... I like the DOF used as well. Bumping up.

Creative and a nice clean shot good job

The singular one classic white tulip, really does make a statement, and stands alone, amongst the rest of the tulips.....

Nice photo, the one that stands out catches my eye. The dark tones are restful.
01/19/2006 12:10:56 PM
The focus point is awesome, nice job
01/19/2006 09:10:52 AM
very well taken and seen. You've given impact to a scene that often doesn't have such a strong focal point. Well done.

Did you have this picked before the singled out challenge. Great image, color, dof
01/17/2006 08:07:33 PM
I think this photo is a real stand out. Good color and composition...leading line with the path straight through the shot, and great focus on that single tulip (I think?!?).

I love tulips. I like how the focus is on the flower and the dirt below. Very nice.

I like the composition and the choice of subjects. Nice perspective as well. The focus seems a little soft.

Not real sure about the blurring or actually the amount of blurring. Seems alittle too much to me or perhaps alittle uneven. I like the perspective of this image and your content. Colors are nice and vibrant.

Nice composition.
01/16/2006 09:07:52 AM
Excellent!

Lovely shot...different look on the "flower" shot...I really like this...from the wet mud to lush green stems to the light blue sky. DoF is perfect and nails down what you were going for...love it...9
