Thank you to everyone that participated in the "High Key" weekly photography assignment. The guidlelines for this assignment were to create a "high key" image composed of predominately light tones with relatively low contrast.
Congratulations to Naomi, whose
Spiny Leaf Insect image was selected as
People's Choice and awarded
Editor's Choice for Artistic and Technical Merit. This was another stunning image by Naomi of a fascinating subject.

Dried Rose image was another good example of a high key image, with predominantly light tones and low contrast, and deserves an
Honorable Mention. The pastel colors and soft lighting were perfect complements to the "high key" tone of this image. I have to admit that the soft focus bothered me a bit; however, this was a beautiful image that fit well within the guidelines of the assignment.
