A lovely shot of this unique pine growth. It does indeed have a holiday feel and makes a lovely image to share these greetings with us. Great shot.

Thank you for the Greeting. The picture is wonderful, the colors work very well together and the framing, backdrop, and focus are all spot on.

Nice colors, although I feel this would be better suited to a vertical, rather than horizontal, composition (or certainly the rule of thirds should be applied to a horizontal composition?) and it does seem a little overexposed and blurry overall. I probably would also have gotten rid of that spider's web. Background looks scratchy and pixelated? Or maybe FAR did all that (the blurry, the scratches and the pixels), since I see that you chose to accept their watermark? I've heard that their resizing program does terrible things to pictures! Nice beginning, but I feel it needs a few tweaks as mentioned to make it a wow image.

    kimartist,

    I can see that or maybe have them a little off center? The slight web there to me makes it feel more natural. Like maybe more contrasts and brightness adjustments?

Beautiful composition of the new pine cones. Great contrasting colors, dof, sharp focus, exposure and framing;)

lovely shot with excellent focus, details, colors and depth of field

I would prefer not to have the flowers in the center, but I do not think I should take stars because of it

Seasons Greeting to you. This is nice but could use some cropping and some darkening to make the colors stand out.
