I actually do like the concept of the photo, it is a great idea.....I just get distracted by certain "noise" I guess people would call it. The towels and the car take away from the beauty of the shot!

"Country Living" is a very nice addition in the comfort challenge. What I think is great is that you used a subject that is comfortable for you not just something you would think voters would like.

The image itself is very nice. The first thing that grabs my attention are the colors, they are so vibrant and rich. I really like the composition. Everything thing feels naturally placed and nothings looks forced. I also think your focus is prefect, we know exactly what we are looking at and it makes sense. The only thing that seems like it could be adjusted it below the hat there is a piece of wood that use looks angled, especially with the black space underneath it. I think without the black slanted line on the bottom the score would have been higher. But hey its the second challenge you have entered and you placed in the upper 50%, that's always a good start.

Colours look oversaturated to me.

Nice idea. I like the colors. I think I might have preferred it if the hat was not so centrally placed though.

Interesting image, but something about the background looks a little too fake.

like the idea, but crop at bottom is as bad as can be, vcan't see the sense in the tilt, greens and blues are oversaturated
