You have highlighted the hammock by framing it with nature that is available to you. It is too bad that the trunk of that palm slices through your hammock, also the grasses and parapharnelia distract somewhat.

Try to increase the contrast a bit more to get the deep rich colours out, see if you like it better. You did a great job by including all these colourful patterns fully into the entire frame. Very nice.

A feeling of warmth emanates from your photo of this lily. The warm sunshine hues nourish this flower after the rain. It is a nicely composed photograph showing sharpness on stamens and delicatness of this flower.

This is your first win...BIG BIG CONGRATS...I hope you are on cloud 9. You will be winning many more of this I'm certain.

Congratulations

Congrats for winning,did like this one

Hurray And congrats. Poetry from Peggy's Cove!

Congrats Sharon

Yes, of course, I love this artistic rendering of Peggy's Cove. A few years back we read in the paper of a tourist who was swept away by a rogue wave and was never seen again, this happened here, at Peggy's Cove and this has nothing to do with a photography review, so please forgive me. I love the poetry to your upload. This is very lovely, your composition , crop, technical aspects are all spot on.

Looks like a water colour painting, very very nice.

Hi, I'm afraid to say anything on these comments because it seems I'm getting disqualified for giving myself away. I will send you a message privately.

Neat shot, where exactly in Toronto was this taken (my hometown)? I like the story of your photograph and the mulling of people, the young couple holding hands. Your image is well taken and very interesting. It is well balanced, no tilting seen and contrast is well handled. Looks cold (what else is new for Toronto?)

Ohhhh Canada. Did you know a tourist was swept away on these rocks never to be found again ? (a few years back). Nice sharp image with wave caught showing us the power of nature. Your colour palette is natural and unpretentious and the horizontal cut rule of photography works to bring us a strong and pleasing image.

Big balls in a boat! I like that reflection caught. Colourful and that pov brings dem balls to us.
