Thanks for the replies of the other image. I hope you don't mind this new one. I just couldn't seem to get a shot of just the cacti by themselves that did anything for me. Thanks for looking again

For better or for worse, I will always love you.

Thanks Chad. I may do a re-shoot or something totally different. I like it but not 100% sure. Not sure re-shooting it with these subjects will make a difference. Thanks for stopping by.

Nice shot Mike, great colors and contrast. Such cool subjects. Good luck this week, not like you need any luck.

Great shot and colors work well together, a hard shot to get right, but you seem to have it down pat.

The colour contradictions is what capture my eyes most. Great pic, as usual.

Happy shooting,
Yakim.

Both are fine photo's, just how many thorns you had to pull out of your hands for that one.

Lighting and color on the cactus...sweet!

OK, now you're just showing off. Great use of your hand posture to show emotion. Love the lighting and the band-aids

Technically tops as were the others. This one seems to have achieved much better balance though.

246 The name of this cactus is "Pincushion". That should have been my first clue, huh? Thank you Norm.

Thanks for that Travis! Much appreciated. Makes doing the re-shoot worth it.
Guys like Endre (Strad) can present just about any subject by itself and have it be a masterpiece. I have not got that down. I have to rely on a bit more with my work to try and captivate to compete with the technical beauty you guys present.

Hey cardsunited, Thanks
I hope having a signature look is a good thing. I don't try to achieve a given look to my work or have any set of rules. I roll with a feeling from start to finish and I swear every piece always feels different with a life of its own. go figure. Thanks again

Hey Chad! Thank you for seeing the effort in the hands. Being on both sides of the camera is so hard.
