Really nice shot. I love the patterns in the sand and the fallen leaves are the icing on the cake. Seems like the lower 2/3 or so could be a bit brighter, but that's more a matter of personal taste than a critique.

Great patterns. Enjoy the subtle color differences in the leaves. I can see you are really enjoying these intimate shots. Nice work.

Beautifully made Jimmy! An arrangement that just "works".

What a find! This is a real gem. The arrangement of leaves, soft side lighting and rock patterns is just delightful here. Liking this very much!

I really like shots like this. Love the texture & ripples in the sand/dirt, and the leaf locations are perfect.

Wonderful color and lines. Really nice comp! My personal preference would be for a little more pop, but that's just me.

Another great find Jimmy! You know, there are many tiny little imperfections, little pieces of "stuff" that this couldn't be anything but completely "found" and natural.

I would agree with others that I think you have some leeway to make this pop a little more. Not so much that the red and yellow go too far, but something to make this a little bit less flat, if that makes sense.

Another great intimate. Have you thought of composing it a little differently so that the lines are somewhat diagonal?

Great little scene Jimmy. I might go a little brighter in the bottom 2/3 to match the top.
