Found this in the Critique Club section:
When I first saw this photo, I was a bit irked that it topped my entry for the challenge, but after a while, it grew on me a bit. This is a very good photo, and deserves the score it recieved since its so relaxing to look at. It fits the theme of the challenge perfectly, and the technicalities of this image are spot on.
The subject is not the most interesting thing to view, but it feels so alone, so left out. Focus is excellent, making the water surface seem like its holding it back, yet giving it life at the same time, the perfect balance, which is Zen.
Great job, well deserved score. |

I really like this shot. It almost looks like it had some selective desaturation. I do like the soft focus, but I think a little additional sharpness at the leaf and perhaps a little more depth of field would not have gone amiss. |

Good idea and elegant capture, though very perfectible: the focus is really too narrow, there is some motion/wind blur on the vertical blade, the spots in the lower right corner are spoiling the global harmony. |

like the idea of this very much but is the sharpest bit quite sharp enough? |
