Congrats on your well deserved win!

Thank you everyone. This was totally inexpected and greatly appreciated.

outstanding camera work and amazing capture, very well deserved win.congrats

looks more like tiles, are tiles considered bricks?

Dear Author, the first thing to consider when entering a photographic contest is if the photo is in focus. If not find an other photo.

In your title you certainly talk about the green part. Then you need to focus on this part. There's too much blurred area at the right of your picture.

Thank you for the comments. Did anyone consider that maybe that was on purpose...

Why would you do this on purpose?

I'm aiming your focus, pointing to where I want you to look.

Well it doesn't work author, would be far better with the focus on the green

Sorry Author, I have to agree with the above statements...the entire right side is out of focus, given the title "Green", one would anticipate the focus to either be on the green, or lead to it. Given the leading lines created by the skew of the bricks and the DOF clearly focused on the left of the image, it leads the viewers eyes not to the green, but off the image to the left...

lovely photo

Tomatoes? Aren't they a fruit?

I would consider them a vegetable, as you grow then in a vegetable garden.

Tomatoes are technically a fruit... but pretty much everyone considers them a vegetable - they go on salads and stuff.

Congratulations... like this photo!!

Brava Anna! Congrats!
