Oh, this is wonderful Albert. The even light and detail from top to bottom is superb. Wonderful image in my opinion.

Good detail and flowing lines. A very nice comp, as was for your first veratrum photo.

Very artistic composition. The color is very rich and really like the way the lines draw you into the image. Great image.

Great motion....looks like green taffy getting pulled into a black hole. DOF is good...I might like a couple forward facing leaf edges razor sharp...only because I am so inclined...that would be beyond a 150mm even at f22... Excellent shot!

What a sense of motion. Feels like a trip on a speedway. Good work, Albert.

Albert - Really like the implied verticals going along the diagonal. While I liked the first one, this one perhaps finds a little more favour with me for a better composition.

Your recent work has been very inspirational :cool:

Superb Composition Albert. I've tried to photograph these several times and never came up with a comp that I liked. Lots of nicely flowing lines and I like that the image has a defined center. :toast: "admirablement très compétent"
