nice idea, but, imo the scissors are the main focus here.

I felt the subject was what was "being cut," rather than the tool doing the cutting.

I think it's on target.. great shot

I'm with the Author here, the action is definitely the focus even if the scissors do stand out a bit.

hm... sorry author, i see scissors! grass is just a prop for the nice shiny scissors. just my opinion.

I see your point author, but the tool is dominating the shot, and you don't see the grass because of it.
As grass is meant to be the focus of this contest, it is, imo, ot.

I understand. My intent to make the photo more interesting simply backfired plus your comments are consistant with other entries in this contest. Good call everyone.

Hey,i'm all for artistic license. and imo this is as on topic as a lawnmower cutting grass. how is a pair of scissors any more dominating in a picture? this is an excellent shot and i believe you are on topic. GL to you author.

beautiful bokeh

great picture.

It almost looks CGI. Nice work

cgi?

edit: had to look that up! nope, not at all.

One of my favourites... Excellent shot.

It's really beautiful

Nice first entry, Good job and Good luck

Nice. I think the grass in the background distracts from the clump in the water. Still a very nice shot.
