Fill the Frame with Nature's Textures

Thankyou to everyone who entered this contest. This image really intrigued me. I am so glad there was an explanation to accompany it. First view leads you to think it is some sort of landscape taken from above. Its amazing what you can get from a pumpkin. You have truly captured the texture and the light accompanied by slight shadows is really nice. You have created a wonderful image of texture that is peaking on surrealism. I am more than happy to award this image judge 1st place. Congratulations and thankyou for entering Fill the frame with natures texture

Your choice of fungi has rewarded you with a great image of texture. It has plenty of depth and you can almost feel the texture of the ridges. Very nicely lit and a clean crisp image of texture in nature Thankyou for entering and congratulations on judge 3rd place.

I love the vibrancy of this image. It has beautiful light and teamed with the shadows has created a crisp looking texture. The details in the leaf are nice and crisp and the colour reminds me of a lovely sunny autumn day. Thankyou for entering and well done in achieving my top 10.

This is a great image full of leaf texture. I think you have the perfect leaf for this brief. The colours and tones are nice and neutral but the light and shadows has brought out the already amazing texture. Everything is nicely in focus. A lovely image that I am pleased to award judge 2nd place. Congratulations and thank you for entering this contest.
