Lovely image Albert. The gently undulating lines of blue make it for me. There is a welcome sense of peace in this image.

A beautiful, graceful abstract. Not sure about the DoF, but that's a personal thing.

I like the diagonal lines and the abstract feel to it. I'm not a big fan of the lack of depth of field

I like the beautiful rhythmic pattern and the soft tones - only one day, but if you get one good picture it is all that matters! :smile:

The contrasting diagonal lines work well here. I do find the out of focus zone in the foreground in the lower left hand corner to be a bit distracting. Otherwise, this is a nice abstract.

Albert, This works for me. The center focus adds an interesting element to the scene and I remember one of your other images where you did the same thing. It works much better in the large version where one can see the textures from sharp focus and how it softly fades away. I'm sure many would find it a little distracting but I like the effect myself. The cool blue shadows are wonderful.

I really like the graphic lines of the shadows along with the cool color combo, Albert. I was on the fence about the OOF area, but it works much better in the large version.

Stepping out on the WC, huh, Albert. :biggrin: These shadows are great and the wavy curves added by the ground's shape add nicely to the scene.
