A nice selective focus shot with enough "enrelatedness" to satisfy my very wide interpretations of theme. Nature vs. man, black vs. white, etc.

I am distracted by two elements of the shot. I might have cloned out or muted the bright green color blotch in the backgrounds center, as it distracts from the subjects, flowers vs. old tires. I also might have cropped a little tighter to avoid the edge of the tires left from causing a very nice diagonal line to kind of fall off. My eye keeps returning to both of these elements, and I find them distracting.

Very nice work though. You get a 7 from me.

I hope the literal âTWO OBJECTSâ folly folks are not killing your photo. I really see exactly two main our photo. 6 from me, and 4 to compensate these folks.

I'm having trouble figuring out what is unrelated to what in this photo.

The flowers in the foreground are great, but the background looks very dark and fuzzy to me - not quite sure what's back there - a tire?

Sorry, I don't get this one.
