Photographer's Comment: This was an attempt to shoot something in an abstract way. Would love to hear critiques and ratings.

By Jim915 (2007-09-11 18:49:42 ): The light, colors and patterns created by the plant are terrific. I especially like the light as it brings the image to life. I would like to see sharper focus on thos leaf parts with the circles.

By maureenyoung52 (2007-09-11 02:05:54 ): I think if you were going for abstract a plainer backround would set off the curls better. It is interesting the way it is ,but not too abstract.

By mo (2007-09-10 12:10:25 ): I thought from the thumbnail that the bright area in the background would be distracting- but am not bothered by it in the full-sized image. I think though, that I would enjoy the image more if the curls were less centered- perhaps shot so that they run across the top third? I like the light and also the limited colours
