    I kind of like the composition of this shot.

    Re: Roots

    I can see why you like the composition... the only issue is that your focus is on a twig left of the grass and the lighting doesn't really emphasize anything. I see roots and some out of focus plants... there's no BAM! . I guess you can save the shot by putting an omni light on the grass in photoshop.

    Gerald, I can't find anything to get excited about here. There's no one element that brings it all together for me. That's not to say it's bad....it's just not my cup of tea. Maybe if you'd had a different angle, or a fallen tree, or something that stands out, it might have held my attention.

    fx101, like this?


    And Addies, it's funny that you mention the fallen tree, as there was one a few yards away from this shot. I tried getting a picture, but I had my 55mm-200mm lens with me, and it wouldn't fit in the frame.
