I'm adding this one to my "favs" and when I'm sad...I'm going to bring this photo up to remind me of life's brighter moments. I love this photo...I want to hang it in my house.

What a beautiful vivid colors, and such a wonderful composition.
This can be a poster, postcard or in any magazine.

I love the rich color and detail. Yet it is so simple! Nicely done.

Very, very nice! :)

Thisi s one of the purest, freshest images I have ever been lucky enough to view. It is so alive, that you interact with this image - you don't just "view".

Exquisite. It is so full of life and the very rays of the sun itself. You are truly gifted.

Really nice use of depth of field, wish that the top right didn't lose the flowers though, nice job otherwise and my favorite for this challenge. This is obviously a tough concept to capture in an image.

Great use of DOF.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Nice. Looks like this could be a greeting card. Nice use of the border.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/30/2004 10:32:18 AM
Beautiful! FWIW, It's a little too out of focus at the top in my opinion. Since the top is the first thing I see, it's nice if it can at least be recognized as flowers. Just a nit pic though. I really like it
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Gorgeous!! One of my 3 10's this time, I predict Red Ribbon.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

This image might be improved by cropping off about the top 3/4ths of an inch to give it the appearence that the flowers extend to the horizon without end.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

This image will not likely score very highly, which is a shame. It's so hard to pull off a good DOF with this kind of shot but you have done it. Also, the difficulty of getting a proper exposure in the harsh light of midday has been overcome adroitly. The ever-so-slight slant in the composition adds interest, while the blurry background prevents the abundance of flora from being overwhelming. Good work.

Great shot, masterpiece, the feeling of depth is great

Lovely!

Nice picture, i often wonder where you people find this kind of landscape(or whatever you call it) :)
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/29/2004 01:02:11 AM
This is an excellent shot

A perfect image for this challenge in my view.
Well captured.

A mass of wonderful colour, like this very much
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/27/2004 06:15:04 AM
These look like chrysanthemums. (Am I right)? There are a lot of flowers here and the danger is that the coloration can become a bit samey. I think it has somewhat.

Very nice work; good aesthetics.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/26/2004 10:24:16 PM
great picture, nice theme, well focused - 9
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/26/2004 09:19:26 PM
I like what you are trying to do here. It might work better if all the flowers were in focus.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/26/2004 08:20:28 PM
I really like the DOF chosen, although I think that a little bit of a vertical crop would have done some good to eliminate the green in the top right corner.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/26/2004 02:18:11 PM
Very nice. Where do you love that you got this great shot this time of the year? Obviously not the northeast.. :)
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/26/2004 02:06:17 PM
So many flowers! I love it. Nice DOF, great colors. Very nice. 10.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/26/2004 09:54:54 AM
I think this looks good, but it lacks a definitive point of interest. You could have got close to one of the flowers, focused on that one, with the rest as background.

simply beautiful...Nice

After getting a bit bored of flower pix, this one really caught my attention. It has a great crispness to it and I like the fact that the stems in the foreground seem to be converging.

Nice and simple, usually don't like flower shots (there's just too many of them), but this one is quite nice, an orange field.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Very nice! Love the colors and the subject!

I love the picture, but I'm not too crazy about the border. maybe a thinner one would have been better, 8 nontheless.

Beautiful shot, excellent clarity and detail.

 03/24/2004 12:40:19 AM
wonderful. like the dof. I would put a very thin black line before the white border on this photo.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
 03/24/2004 12:20:31 AM
Yaay! I'm glad someone mixed it up a bit. I really like the overall composition and effect. It's very eye catching. My only caution is that the DP community may not allow the white border for the basic editing rule in this challenge. I hope that's not the case. It won't affect my mark regardless, which is high.
