Well need no name to know who put together this simple little beauty.
Less is more is certainly appropriate here. The single stem of wheat adorned w/ droplets is so pretty. I AM curious though....the droplets are so perfectly round I am thinking you added them??
The pale wisps of grasses along the bottom....as well as the dim sun in the background are a marvelous touch. Definitely give your photo an elegant feel....as does your color palette. Finally, I like your paler mirror image of the wheat grass stem you've added just to the right.
Your post work is absolutely stunning.....the very best to you w/ this photo in the contest. Simply beautiful.

This mixed media is quite unusual. The focus is spot on the grass and the dew drops including the reflections. There is amazing crisp detail. The soothed double looks like the reflection in a milky window. The sunrise/sunset at the background seems to be seen through the same milky window. The well thought of light and shadow is intriguing. The composition and framing are an example of harmony.
Best luck for the contest.

A beautiful picture of these grass seed heads encrusted with liquid diamonds sparkling in the light while the rising/setting sun in the background is seen through a veil of mist that the grasses except for the one in the foreground are also seen through. Artistic composition, framing & lighting taken with superb camera techniques & sharp focus.

Your contest title may be simple but this photograph is far from simple. It has beautiful composition, comprising of isolated sharp strands with a complex misty background. Love it and good luck in your competition!

Love this it fits the criteria perfectly. The droplets on the grass add to impact and the subtle lighting and background are great. Great composition, focus and dof.

What a beautiful scene you have created here. The 'less is more' really makes this a standout work. The lighting on the foreground seeds are complimented by the water droplets. The sharpness of focus adds to the detail and takes the eyes on a subtle and peaceful journey. The sun in the background, even though it is not the main light source, makes a lovely addition to the scene. This will do well in the contest without a doubt. Very well done. A cyber Six ~ Steve

Comment from Bonnie D
I love the color and the simplicity of content. There is something about the tall reed in Gold tone and "beads"? that over take the soft moon and wild grass.
It is balanced and has a soft feel to it. Nice job. Bonnie D.

The "beads" are droplets of water, and they are meant to take over the scene. It is the straw with drops of water being the center of interest in this photo. Not the background. Thanks a lot for the lovely review.

Thank you for clarifying that avmurray.
It is certainly a lovely shot.

A beautiful shot. The light on the grass is very fine and the misty wetland setting is attractive. I like the low placement of the sun and the colors are very nice. Best of luck in the contest.
