beautiful shot

agree...nicely done, and yes they do spook easily!

I actually quite like this shot, it appears natural, not setup in anyway, the colours and lighting is really quite nice ... congratulations author.

Just keey trying

nice!!

Santa broke his head! I like this one.

what was the light source, could you diffuse it, with a sheet or piece of paper for instance......

I LOVE Smidgies. My family always has to rush in to get some, or else hide some, because I have NO self control when it comes to these. Good thing they're only around once a year.

oh man, you must really hate santa so much...

looks like a nice collection............lighting a little harsh, and dof a little to shallow... imo

This is not funny author...you just broke my heart cause Santa is real...isn't he...?

Well, unfortunately that's how we rate entries. It's a photography contest. I would imagine some people may base their vote on the humor but you could have adjusted (and still can) the contrast a little. It's also slightly out of focus. Try to upload a higher resolution image as well.

The only reason it's rough is because you say it is. Sorry but it's off theme.

I agree with friiskiwi. Without a Hi-res on this one it is hard to make out. There is something unnatural about the water drops too. To me it looks like too much work has been done in PS.

Beautiful!

this is lens flare..........

it is lovely

sorry, it doesn't work for me, flowers are soft too, and without a high res, I really can't see what you mean.

Are those rays or lens flare?

then you need to learn a little more about f stops and lens speed!.....good attempt tho, well done
