Very well done. What is most interesting to me about this photo is that the tree appears to be rusting, almost as if this forest were neglected. When nature is left to "rust," beauty ensues.

Lucky catch. My bet's on the spider--it looks pretty mean, even with a size disadvantage!

So much about this photo works very well: great color palette and tones, light, and arrangement. Well done!

This is very eye catching and engaging. I can almost smell and feel the lemon just looking at it!

Doug,

My personal opinion is to agree with your choice. The form in the second of the three (811) seems to break the mood (serenity?) a bit and the fog and shadows of the third seem a little more on point in the third--your choice--than the first. That said, all three are quite lovely!

Avijit,

This is a very nice photo. The gold tones of the background give it a soft, demure quality. I also like (and I hope you do too!) the crisper, more spring-like feel that I was able to achieve by tweaking the colors a bit. Regards,

Melissa

Great DOF. The smooth background helps to emphasize the detail and texture of the butterfly.

Very nice, especially the tones and texture. I would be interested in seeing this with a little less crop from the top. Nice job!

Excellent job! This is a very striking subject, which is brought out nicely by the black background. The color tone suits it well and the framing seems appropriate.
