1st place
Feathers by twinkel

solita17: Sweet and lovely simplicity, Els. It isn't that easy to get feathers focused so sharply. Good one!

Homtail: Haha Twinkle! 'Still not sure about it!' And now its the winner! Congratulations! It just goes to show that the artist is way more critical of thier work than those who look at it! It is stunning!

2nd place
Wings of the seagull by elektronist

Logun7: Outstanding entry!! Best of luck to you in the contest:)

Nikoneer: I agree... an excellent entry. The bokeh puts all the emphasis on the gull and the face is tack-sharp, allowing the slight blur of the wings to express motion. Best of luck, Tanju.

Just A Johnny Jump Up by chadwik05

luckyshot: Congratulations on your third place finish in the Simplicity contest. Thad

Eubeen: A good angle in the photo. Nice focus and details in the flower and bottle. Lovely colours and composition. Best of luck in the contest.

4th place
Mirrored Bliss by quaffapint

LynEve: Congratulations on your contest placement.
Well deserved with this beautiful image.

purmusic: Just had the thought that your photo here would be a more than worthy entry to the current contest running.

That of; "Simplicity".

And if taken literally, the definition/meaning of simplicity more than applies, methinks.


Best of luck, should you decided to enter.

And again, it is a nice shot.


p.s. Lil' bit of noise present. Not sure what image editing software you have at your disposal, however.. and forging ahead ... here is a freeware noise removal program available as standalone or plugin:

A Bud In The Sun by Jimbobedsel

Ramad: Good clarity and good DOF in this image Jimbob. A very good entry for the contest.

casechaser: Jim, very well done. Best wishes in the contest.

LadyR: Could that possibly be a PussyWilow? Lovely shot - the blurred / obscured background really makes the bud pop!
