The tones are just right here. For some reason, I think centered is just the ticket for this leaf. Great contrast of texture,too.

Yowsa! How this shot fared so poorly in the challenge is beyond me. Excellent image. The color, composition and clarity are outstanding.

Originally posted by BobsterLobster: For me, the most underrated picture this challenge. Great composition... I'm not normally a fan of centred subjects, but it works well here. The shot is perhaps a little oversaturated and oversharpened, but it's a great Autumn picture. I was going to add this to my favourites, but I notice you haven't been too generous with your 'helpful' ticks on the comments below so I think I'll add another shot instead. I do feel that many people deserve a tick who put time and effort into giving you a perfectly helpful and reasonable comment.

Bobster, i too think that people deserve to know when their comment was helpful but we all have a different idea of what "helpful" is. Telling someone they have nice colours is good and well, but as a learner, I think that a little depth to the comment may have helped me to think of other ways to improve. it's not that i don't appreciate their comment, i do, but that may not be my idea of what is "helpful". i too was disappointed at the results of this photo only because i was quite happy with what it said to me. thanks for your comment.

Very nice picture of graceful lady. I would suggest to crop a small part away from the right, it feels unbalanced now.

Nice photo. A bit hot on the scarf, and I think it could have been composed more to the left where's she's facing. Also: not sure I see grace here. Maybe if she were striding...

Nice shot, but unless her name is Grace, I see none.
