45	May 21	Comment	A well-deserved first place! Congratulations!!!	May 6th
45	May 21	Comment	I like your idea of filling the frame with the face. The green and orange colors are really highlighted this way. I like the changes that David made to the composition and might suggest adding a slight vignette to keep the eye in the center of the frame. The eyes are in good focus and draw me into the image.	May 6th
45	May 21	Comment	I like the sepia treatment you gave to this photo. You have nice details in the tree branches and I like the cemetery to the right. I think it gives it a sense of the surrounding environment. My only suggestion is to add a little more space around the tree if possible. It fells like its cropped a little too closely for my taste.

45	May 21	Comment	This is a beautiful scene with such nice warm lighting. You have captured it nicely with the rays coming through the trees. I hope you are able to return for even more shots. Would love to see some close-ups of the Bluebells, as well.	May 6th
45	May 21	Reply	So, how did you do in the competition?	May 6th
45	May 21	Comment	The dreary, rainy day really gave a mood to this photo and helped the trees to stand out without a distracting background. I like the graduated sizes of the trees and you have nice focus and details in the branches. For my taste, I would crop up from the bottom just a bit to crop out the flat stone with the bright reflection in the bottom left and also from the right to eliminate the stone wall in the lower right corner. I think the design of the wrought iron fence adds to your image and the design is a nice contrast to the branches.	May 3rd
45	May 21	Comment	Wow! I am so impressed with all you are able to do with your post-processing in Photoshop. I think this is a marvelous image and would be a winner in competition. I like everything about it and do not have any suggestions for improvement. Excellent job!	May 3rd
45	May 21	Comment	You handled the lighting and conditions very well. Although it is recommended by many to try to capture the photo when the sky still has a blue color, this image is quite nice and the reflections really make it special. It is a lovely scene and I like your composition very much. You might try to use the unsharp mask in Photoshop to make it just a little sharper. Nice job!	May 3rd
45	May 21	Reply	Thank you for your kind words, Stephen. No, I did not tie it myself - I bought it! I looked at your photos and I really like your "rope art" and ability to tie the knots.	May 3rd

50	May 21	Comment	Excellent shot! The car is so sharp and in focus. I like the monochrome very much and the only small suggestion I have is to add a slight vignette. I think this will do well in competition. Please let us know how it does.	May 12th
50	May 21	Comment	You have nice details, especially in the ropes and the sepia tone works so well here. I would suggest a slight vignette to keep the eye in the frame. Very interesting close-up.	May 12th
50	May 21	Comment	You have a very nice tonal range and wonderful details everywhere except the white centers of the cacti which are a little soft and slightly blown out. Compositionally, the two subjects (especially the white centers) compete and my eye jumps back and forth. I think it would be a stronger image to focus on the details of just one of them.	May 12th

57	May 21	Comment	I like the dramatic sky with the train. I see what Jessica is saying about the noise with the train - I bet Noise Reduction in Camera Raw could take care of that. Compositionally, I like the slight diagonal of the train in the original shot rather than the side view of your finished photo.	May 12th
57	May 21	Comment	Great capture with nice details and composition. I like the diagonal lines. My only suggestion is to darken the image some; it is a little bright for my taste.	May 12th
57	May 21	Comment	Very soft and delicate with a wonderfully blurred background. I really like the center petals of the flower and agree with Bob that the white side of the outer petals are a little bright and without details. Being so bright, they pull my eye there. I would suggest that you include the tip of the petal on the left or else crop in even more so it looks intentional.	May 12th
57	May 21	Reply	Would love to see more!	May 6th
57	May 21	Comment	Love the vibrant colors in this creative image. The water drops look like they are floating! You have inspired me to try something different. I'd say your experimenting was a success.	May 6th
57	May 21	Comment	Nelson, I just love this photo! The background is wonderful. I really like the soft, pastel colors. You maintained just the right amount of sharpness/focus on the center of the flower and bee. This needs to be printed and framed and/or on a card.	May 6th
