    Wow! I definitely love the first. The color contrast and the horizontal against the vertical makes it a very stunning candidate for the theme.

    Id go with the first shot, it has a great color contrast and just looks impressive overall.
    Best regards,

    I saw you already posted it but I had to comment!

    The first one is CONTRASTIC! (hehe!)

    My wife and I were driving down the highway today and I saw an orchard that really showed a lot of contrast. I said "wow, that's got a lot of contrast...it's contrastic!". I was so excited with my new word and I got to use it here!

    I like the second one as well.:D

    My wife just took a look at it and made a good point - not only do the colors contrast, but there's contrast in directional forces. Interesting!

    And, according to your new vocabulary rules, it makes it "polycontrastic" rolleyes1.gif

    'contrastic'. that is an awesome new word invention. Laughing.gif.

    i like the first one, the almost silhoutte branch matched with the golden leaves is really full of contrast. however, the subject is lacking much detail (the branch). i wish you can go back and reshoot another area or something, or even bring your own subject. but, after seeing it with a border, yeah, i think it works. but then again, i still feel like im looking at a simple stick in a bush. but screw what im saying, turn it in, i love the gold. lol good luck.
