Three faces and six eyes. Job well done.
This is almost a portait photo. The texture in the wool is present.
Are they calling for help???? |

The colors has a path, a way to the building at the end. I like it.
However the B&W version is much stronger. Good choice of the square format. I really like it. I like the balance between the building at the end and the luminaire (light fixture) on the right, next to the banks, the only one with the "bulb in the sky", which makes it more visible.
Good idea to remove the 2 shadows on the left. The white building on the right draws the attention, indeed. |

Good eyes Paul dor the 2 bottom corners...
When you have seen them, your eyes are attracted by them...
I will try to light them, without cropping to keep the subject on a strong point. |

I think everything is already written...
Good conversion B&W, as in colors the red color attracts. Not the only reason, the conversion is well done, the subject is well highlighted.
We can imagine a story by the face of the fisherman.
With or without more space on the light, is different. I think here the focus has to be on the fisherman and his boat, not on the seascape. I like it. |

Indeed a beautiful place to visit and to rest.
"To go to the point" with my personal opinion, this is an interesting subject, but the picture of your iPhone is not the best it has already taken. I think for two reasons: upper part is too dark and the lack of texture in the vegetation. Just a personal opinion.
However, well done for the composition, path and banks, and the lines and elements directing to the bells. |

We don't have these wild animals in Belgium, so thanks to share this really beautiful picture. There were millions...
At the right time at the "right" place... to have a beautiful picture and emotion.... Perfect processing. As mentioned by David, to have both eyes is a bonus. |

This is my youth (some years ago...) in Belgium, but with smaller tractors, machines and farmlands. We forked the bales onto the wagon. Beautiful souvenirs... Thanks David.
Good conversion in B&W (removing of the disturbing element, ...) and processing of the light, as already mentioned by Jerry & Diane. |

With pleasure Murphy.
What I tried to explain it is that I see the picture and the distribution of flowers on the 2 ways, namely:
1. Vertical "groups" of two, 5 times (groups) of the 2 flowers, of
2. the 2 red flowers on the left, and after a kind of circle composed by the 8 remaining flowers.
I see more second description.

All the process you have described (preparation, picture and cleaning) takes time.
As you mentioned, there is some vignetting in excess. For the rest, I can only applaud. |

Both versions are indeed interesting.
However The B&W one is "more finished", see the stem in the lower left-hand corner.
The 'floating" stamen are intriguing and raise questions, so there are interesting.
As usual, job well done Ray. |

Beautiful flower. Well done.
Indeed the background is quite "busy", but it is, for me, mostly non-homogeneous.
As I like the square format, I think we need a larger background as you have.
I also like the insect on the flower. |

The Rhododendrons are great (sharpness and light).
I am quite "disturbed" by the out of focus blue lowers, and there are on a strong point, so it attracts attention. It makes a triangle with the 2 Rhododendrons.
Even if I like the square format, a suggestion is to crop a little. |

at first glance, I'm mostly attracted by the beautiful colors and the sharpness.
The vignetting gives the impression of better lighting in the center. I also like the position of the different flowers. I see it two ways, always groups of two, and 2 flowers on the left and a circle.
