I'm not sure what you were aiming for here, but i find the lines and divisions very distracting...

no... it was f/40... using the 90mm macro and standing that close, that's about as far as it goes in focus... it was intentional. i wanted the tip of the gun 'tack' sharp and my face to be just be half out of focus, so i guess i got what i wanted ;)

i think you're right... i think the photo would have cleared 50% but for the subject, but i kinda knew that going in... thanks...

Beauty In Hiding

unfortunately, the season for kudzu blooms is over.

my main thought in having he leaves in front is to show the bloom hiding (hince the title) you really do have to know when in the year they start to bloom and go digging around under those big green leaves to find them. i think they're quite pretty and well worth the finding... i'll have to upload some more kudzu bloom pics to the portfolio soon

thanks unclebro... glad you like it.

if i remember correctly, the shadow is what drew my attention in the first place. as for the sidewalk, i think a 8x10 crop would take care of that. might change it if i upload a printable version of this one...

in my personal ranking, i gave you the yellow... guess, in hindsight, the blue really does go better with this photo ;) just shows the collective voters are smarter than me...

congratulations!
