"This image is a perfect representation of red in nature, a beautiful mountain scene. I love the layers in the photograph and the red/orange tones against the foggy monochromatic mountain side. This is a very well put together photo, nice work." - Michael Shainblum
"Crisp details and a captivating scene captured here. The water droplets add a wonderful element to the frame and the complimentary colors work super well here. The frame seems a little cramped and the edge tangets at the bottoms of the left/right sides are a bit distracting, overall this is a fantastic image." - Michael Shainblum
"This flower image is very beautiful. The composition is stunning and the wonderful spiral lines help give the image a very pleasing shape. My only nit pick is that it appears the red channels seem to be blown and are out of gamut. My favorite part of this image is that its a perfect example that you do not need a super dramatic scene to make a beautiful photograph. " - Michael Shainblum
