Crisp and clear. The foam seems to be floating over the sand....like the sand is repelling it.

Love how the sand is so caught up in the foam. The clarity is amazing!

I think this is the first photo I've seen that looks from the water towards the beach.Very cool.

Your photo brings me a peacefull feeling... a quiet place, walking in the morning... really nice! GL

You did good, haven't made sushi for years.

next year you might want to peek

nice watch

love this close up shot

Nice idea, the photo not the gift. I do feel the background is too overpowering, love it, but.. Might have been better if the 'Melon man' who is should be the main object, wasn't quite so dark.

That's adorable.

Hope this was taken with a zoom. They can be mean. Nice capture.

yeah. I love the, um... energy... too!

cute... but a little OOF

I don't think you need to see the stage, but the photo needs to have a look about it to show it was taken during an actual stage show.

Nice capture

Love the energy in this one.

goal states;
Make sure it is an obvious 'on stage' photo and not a training sessions of your daughters ballet group in their local school, that will be considered off theme as will be street artists.

Nice timing.

Your very welcome

Fantastic macro! I too thought it a bee, but couldn't see wings, and was wondering, "Where's the beetle?" Great photo!

It's a beetle, wow, first time I see a hairy beetle. Do you know what the name of it is? I want to read more about this amazing scary looking, petal devouring creature. =)

Super, great length, makes your eyes look at the whole picture = )

Nice shot, but the speckles on the flower take away from the picture a tad. Maybe it's pollen from another flower, yeah I'll just think that and not let that distract me =)

Holy cow, that thing looks dangerous, I mean is that a bumble bee, it looks huge! Oh yeah and nice flower =)

Very Nice Congrats!

Congrats for your first place!

he is definitely chubby and happy.

lovely
