And sprinkled with pollen!

Omg! This is so awesome!

This is a really cool picture! great job author

A beautiful photo, but it is not a dark and a light colour, it's contrasting colours

It is a dark green and a light green, which are both dark and light and contrasting.

Sorry I don't agree, the tones are far too close.

I am sorry that you feel that way I guess we just can agree to disagree.

I have read and re-read and re-read the contest goal but cannot, for the life of me, see how this wouldn't be on-theme. I have consulted with others and they seem to agree with me, not that it makes either of us right or wrong. I guess its just a matter of different opinions that again, the mods can sort out.

Fabulous shot author...very well done

Thanks erathion!
@ friiskiwi, I didn't give you the thumbs down but I did restore your points!

No worries, it's a beautiful photo, but IMO not right for this contest. Judging by the number of photos I have removed, I am often wrong. so please don;t take my comments the wrong way. I think I was more trying to clarify what is actually wanted, and as you photo is still here, shows that I'm wrong again. Good luck.

I never take what you say wrong, I am thankful for your guidance. I understood exactly what you meant, just didn't agree is all. But we can't always agree so it's perfectly fine by me for you to give your opinion.

this would have been great for this weeks green and yellow contest.

Nice photo but the DOF makes it not a very good stock-contest image for a PS contest IMHO

Agree with above. The sharper the subject, the better! Good luck!

Very nice colors and composition.

Looks good, but you will need a high res for top marks.

I like the glowing! It makes it a little more interesting imo (:

great
