Author, did you take this photo?

Nicely done

fantastic

Lovely framing and photo, just a little soft.

Those flowers aren't black, I believe the idea is to have ONLY BLACK in the photo. It is a hard concept to get ones mind around, strange as we had no trouble understanding White on White.
I too have had an image removed and several I haven't uploaded.

Congratulations, great shot and treatment

I love the quality of this photo, but the colour seems rather too magenta

Congratulations on 1st Place, well done

well done

great photo

Nice capture

Congratulations on 1st and 2nd place, well done.
Seems our voting is working well, I for one was pleased to see that so many of the top placeings were photos full of distinct colours.

Interesting DOF. As the Theme is Red, I would have liked the red petals to be more in focus.

Congratulations. Totally deserved, it's beautiful shot

well done

Congratulations on1st Place, Great photo.

Haunting

Lovely DOF, what lens and setting are you using?

Nice effect, how did you achieve it?

good find

That was some storm!

Author, it is sad that you feel the need to leave complimentary comments on your own photos.

The replacement is absolutely delightful

Beautiful

Looks like Pebble Bay, or do all the playgrounds look the same.

Lovely, kids never do seem to feel the temperature.

I'm not sure it the image is over sharpened, or if it's an HDR that has not aligned properly, but there is something not quite right.

This is better, Auto doesn't always work.

Nice photo, but you may want to cut back a little on the yellow.

Congrats on 1st place, lovely collection

This is a lovely snap for the family album, but with a bit of cropping and brightening it could be a much better photograph.

1st and second, Good week.

Congratulations, great photo

sweet

great shot

great shot, hope that's not blood.

wonderful

Congratulations on 1st and 2nd place.

Red green yellow blue, makes 4

After looking at the SBS, I tend on agree that this is on theme and clever, as long as we don't take the 'plain cardbord box ' too far, but then the goal also mentions a camera box as being OK.
As so often, the wording of the goal could have been better.

Beautifully done

Nice setup

Beautiful

WOW, I'm sure this is not what the author of the theme had in mind. Love it, a wonderful take on the theme and a great photo.
