Hi Oliver, I'm quite fond of the first shot; the three flowers on a broad leaf. I would love to see a huge wet print of this. A fascinating juxtaposition of shapes and values. The boat and the basin at sunrise is also quite nice. It's texturally rich and visually interesting. I like the way that the principal elements are tucked away on the left, while the photograph drifts off toward the ocean. The lily photograph doesn't work for me. Almost nothing is in focus. And there is some heavy banding that seems to have been introduced while working with the scan. Probably too much contrast pumped in. But the first two are great. Thanks for sharing them with us.
