Comment by ShutterPug:
the composition here is very nice. The color tones are well done here also. Just a little soft on the focus. Overall, I love it - especially the way this bear lokos to be sticking his tongue out at his observers. 9

Good clarity, colors and lighting. I think it might be a little stronger if the curve of the wall lead to a bench, or a particularly colorful group of flowers, or perhaps a person. But we can't always put these things where we want them :-) Good angle on the curve, it definitely causes the eye to travel across the photo.

I like the geometric quality of this shot an I think the shadows work well.

Very nice. I would probably have cropped the roof (it might be distracting and doesn't bring a lot). Great colors and contrast.

I'm not sure but should the line obscure the subject...or should they just lead too the subject....I'm thinking it is the latter. A better shot for the challenge might hav been to have picked one of the sections and shot the garden through it there by seeing more of the subject and less of all the lines It might have been more of a framing challenge shot but I think enough of the lines included about the circle would have got you by.. I can see your attraction to all the shadows but they really don't lead any where to me.

you captured something that I have always been trying to capture myself. the feeling the space and shadow gives you.

lots of lines here. unfortunately those center columns seem to block the movement you're trying to create. i wish you had found a nice focal point, perhaps some flowers and found a line leading to them...perhaps some of the shadows created by these lines would have done the trick.
