I love the graphic of the green pickup truck! Nice tight composition to eliminate background distractions. The green hubcap is a strong anchor within the black tire. The red of the gas tank gives some pull back to the left. The richness of the color is wonderful; your images show many variations of green; this bluish green is one of my favorites.
In the jeweled water droplet image, the 3 droplets of varying sizes create a rhythm and flow in an image which is essentially a texture. The play of light and shadow shows depth in the leaves. Overall sharpness of the subject is pretty good; I know these very 3D macro subjects can be difficult to choose the correct spot to focus and get the depth of field you wish. Good job on a tight composition.
The fern image is very strong. The curving stem creates motion in the image. I like the backlighting along the serrated edges of the fern. They make a lovely counterpoint to the circular spores. The image feels a bit like a piece of music, with peaks and valleys of sound or motion. The softness of the image at the left is interesting; the image would be more graphic if the whole image were “sharp”; would this change the feeling? Would the image lose some of its approachability and become more graphic industrial? I like the image as is, but would be curious to see it in other incarnations.
The feel of the greenish yellow sea of leaves is intriguing. I like the way the images in the foreground are much larger and how the angle leads us backward in the image. A nice compliment to your series of images on wild space in Seattle.
I tried to find a curved frond again to try a sharper image. It might be interesting.
I talked to the truck owner. His grandfather came home from the Korean war in 1952 and went straight to the Chevy dealer. It's been in the family since then.
I told him the red gas pipe was a great touch. He responded, "That's primer."
