Thanks for the comments. Not happy with the results but I think I got what it deserved. I wanted more contrast but the ground was too dry and the care takers wouldn't let water them. I left the trestles in the background to show what the place was. Maybe it ws a bad choice. Still turned out better than my average. I can be content...

Interesting. I hope you didn't have to dig it up just for the contest! Good photo.

There is an obvious triangle so thits fits the challenge. Unfortunately it is very tough to capture the beauty of a scene that has alotof green as a primary color. I have tried and failedon several occasions. I also think this could be in part because you center of interest is not exciting enough to cary the image. Nice try. And best of luck in the future.

Nice triangle, a bit more in focus would help here, for me, and slightly different cropping would leave a more obvious double triangle one from the garden and an implied mirrored one with the posts. 8

I think there's too much distraction points in this image as it is now. A closer crop on the triangular shape would have yielded an effective picture both within and out of the context of the challenge.
