well done, but I think it should have been in last weeks 'Extreme danger' contest. LOL

It's technically a beautiful photograph, but in my opinion you were not all that close to the ground when you took it.

Love the vibrancy of the flower and the transparency of the wings against the dark background.

A good try and nice leading lines, just a shame you weren't on the other side of the butterfly, being in the shade, you have just lost too much detail. I guess the camera was trying to expose for the light behind.

Wonderful lines and patterns, I would how ever loose the air-conditioning units at the top, they add nothing to the photo.

Checker Box Lane

a beautiful garden, Just a little dull, the light not the garden. You can't do much about the weather, but I would try making it a little lighter and add a little contrast.

I like this photo, but something isn't quite right, I think the bridge is too centred. Horizon is also slightly crocked.
I would try cropping it, Perhaps just below the middle chimney and most of the house on the right, just leave a slight bit of the house.
Only a suggestion.

Good leading lines, love the couple sitting at the edge.

To the bridge and beyond

friiskiwi says:

A good attempt, but the OOF log in the bottom right corner is distracting, You can crop quite a bit off the bottom, and right side, leaving the stump in the background in the photo, a little off the left. This will follow the rule of thirds.

Well done for getting the focus on it's head. Shame about the 2 blades of grass in front. I know there is nothing you can do about it, but the do distract. I would have added a little more contrast, but that's just my style.

I kind of agree with Mossy, but I do love having the two butterflies in the one photo, it makes it a very pretty photo.

Lovely photograph of a fruit market, but the people are really lost, and they should be the main subject for this contest.
