This is a cool semi-abstract. I really like the juxtaposition of the various elements. I think it also works well cropped at the bottom above the leaves. To my eye, makes it a little more abstract. Very well done.

Harley- yes I thought long and hard about that. I finally decided I liked the little splash of color. I could be wrong.

Very nice display of the different textures. I agree with Harley on the crop to make it more abstract.

Neat view on a tough spot to shoot. The textures and colors in the rocks work very well. I like the leaves at the bottom and wish I could see their bottom edge, but I'll bet that there wasn't a clean transition down there.

Pretty interesting. I agree with Harley's crop suggestion. I think it would put more emphasis on the great lines and angles you have here. Good work

Nice angles Ronald; I too would crop the leaves.

Cool semi abstract! Kind of an optical illusion.

I'm not sold on the leaves on the bottom though.
