Very engaging. Drawn first by the pattern, second by the morphing colour; and then I prickle.

one of my favorites this challenge -- like the entire presentation (title, frame, composition, two-tones) - the only thing that kept me from picking this as a ribbon was the light. It seems to be flatter than I'd like (with just a hint of richer tones at the top left and more muted ones center right)

nice palette of yellow and purplepink, nice curve. 7

Great shot - demonstrates excellent textures, leading lines, and depth.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

The colors and textures seem to work really well in this photo. The diagonal movement created by "leaves" (?) is quite dynamic and flows quite well throughout the entire shot. The top might have been cropped a bit tight but overall, the textures and color is quite exceptional in this shot. Good luck.

The colours seem earthy which is good in a way, however I feel its much too flat-looking and a bit dull. Needs more contrast I think. The shapes are good though, and the curves lead the eye nicely. It also looks like it's had some kind of effect applied in post processing which I think detracts from the photo a bit. Not having seen the original (or knowing for sure that this isnt the original) I can't say for certain though. Just my opinion :)
