Here's another that I'd like input on.  I happen to like this one, but am not sure if others will agree:

Thoughts, opinions, criticism, praise (haha) all gladly accepted!

Reed,

I like this shot too.  The composition is very good.  The fact that most of the grass blades are oriented in the same direction gives the picture a sense of harmony.  Exposure is excellent.  There is enough color and detail in the major clump of leaves to attract the eye and be a central subject, albeit not a strong one.  If I were to change anything, I might crop off 10 or 15 percent of the right edge of the photo, but I don't think that this is critical.

Nice work.

I like it I would call it Order in Chaos. The disorder and the order all in one.

Reminds me of salmon making their way up a waterfall.  Lovely.

I like this one the way it is, Reed.  I like the way the upper-right and lower-left corners balance each other (as do the upper-left and lower-right).  Some square crops might work, but then you'd lose the eye movement (for me, upper-right to lower left).
