Hi guys,

here are my thoughts about this week’s entries, they are all great and as you will read further down, colourful.

@someoldguy - very nice little sprout, it shows that not all leaves must be green, like the contrast with dark background and pinky(ish) leaves warming up in the sun, who would say that one day it will be the queen of the flowers

@oblomow - great picture showing new growth, beginning of the life, lovely colours and interesting view into the nest, hair look a bit like mine

@Fravin - great example of different shapes in nature, like the perspective looking up through the greenery

@Janichsan - lovely shot with great colours, like the greens in there and colour contrast, another one sun bathing and enjoying warmth coming with the spring

@hurstja - another nice picture, great detail and colours, these guys are probably still caterpillars in our country

@kenoh - I'm going to repeat myself, but love the colours on this one, that pink/red against the blue/grey very much pleased my eye

@mollyc - not surprising that mollyc's entry is once again one of the best, great image, love it

@OldMacs4Me - did I mention something about great colours in nature before? no, so here is very good example, like these flowers, we've got something very similar here in Slovakia

@dmb8021 - Okay, I promise, that would be my last mention of colours with the adjective – awesome

So, tough judging, very good entries, so here is the podium for this week.


3rd Place - @mollyc
2nd Place - @dmb8021
1st Place - @oblomow (not because of hair)

Thanks to all that participated.
