Nice composition Doug, well done mate. The grass doesn't give me the impression of negative space though.

Nice one Doug. I think the grass works fine as "negative space". The textures also provide a flattening effect that enfolds the subject(s). -tv

Nice shot, Doug. I like the action and plenty of negative space to point to the subject. Cheers, -mikey

Cute action shot Doug and the grass background really makes your son stand out! CJ

Good sense of motion in this shot, Doug, with the lines of the hose and the direction of the spray. I had never thought of grass as negative space, but over the last few days I've begun looking at it differently. Still not certain of it, however. I guess this Challenge is proving to be a learning experience for all of us, and I'm not sure that we'll actually come to a real agreement about what constitutes negative space in photography.

Nice capture COAmature! The green grass creates a very pleasing negative space that really makes the subject pop! Well done!
