nicely done, good entry...I might have liked to see this one taken directly on the rail shooting down the line...but this is good too

totally awesome!!! great entry!!! wonderful shot

really neat effect, agree, looks like a deep space shot

very well done, great lighting and color

agree, great color, but would have cropped off the top a bit

very pretty, well done

well done, nice entry

nicely done, good color and detail

nicely done, great entry, I like this...composition just a tad off...I would have cropped a bit off the bottom so it began with the water pool

Ouch...my hand is cramping just thinking of this one...great entry

Sure, why not? works for me too! I BBQ about 4 times a week...

nicely done, good entry....Yum

nicely done...fits the theme well IMO, good job

nicely done, good entry

perfectly on theme, great entry

Great timing and interesting snap...good entry

agree...very much OOF...too bad

funny....

well done! nice entry

great entry and nicely done...

nicely done, good entry

just did some quick research on wikipedia and IR filters are tuned to let in light frequencies of 720 + nanometers, orange is 600nm and would therefore be blocked by an IR filter...IMO, this photo is not possible with an IR filter attached...I would be interested to know how this one was done

I'm not too certain is an actual IR either...looks nothing like I've seen anywhere else

amazing things can happen with ' maybe I should try..." worked nicely, good entry!

simply beautiful! nicely done

nicely done and right on theme too!
EDIT: Well done author! much better submission this time!!!

ARF!

nice setup...

just a bit oof...but on topic! nicely done

Too funny! great capture...

Ok...that's enough of that! LOL...how are we going to compete with this author if you don't share the ENTIRE story on the set-up ?!? LOL!!! Really great work! definate fav!

Another great entry...I can't wait til I figure out this lighting technique!...fantsatic as always!

Nicely done! I like the set up...@ade...appears desaturated, sepia and possibly gaussian blur??? perhaps a bit more...

beg to differ author, but I agree w/ fallinghorse...a bit of a crop might do nicely, just another opinion....but love the nice dof

ummmm...yea...

That explains the strange "halo" and jpeg articles appearent in the snap..but nice climbing!

beautiful color and great clarity

Awesome!!! i thought I might have a chance at this contest until I saw this one...great job!!

Great lighting and focus, great detail, nicely done

You know...I kinda really, really like this one...I think the totally blown sky actually ADDS to this one...creates a 'dreamy' or ethereal effect on the entire image...this is pretty darn good.

Author...usually if I'm conflicted on wich way to shoot...I try to get one or two quick shots in BOTH landscape and portrait, then decide later when i put them on screen which is better, just a hint for future reference...

wonderful detail and color, nicely done

agree, very nice work...only 1 payment left?

nicely done author...banana? this one has appeal! LOL

very nice, great detail in hirez...good work author

excellent timing...I've been trying to get one like this but my timing suks...guess that's why I don't dance either!

superb work! nicely done author, wonderful detail

simply great!

I'm not certain what a "succulent" is, but, nice capture, great DOF and good and sharp...might have just changed the shot angle a bit to get the tulips in the drops a bit more...really nice entry!

neat shot, but I'm wondering if it's totally on theme....
