mawest 0 Posted June 19, 2003 I'm not sure about the green tinges on the flower...IMO I think they take away from the pink. Out of curiousity...did you mean by the title to reference the ice cream-like desert or is there another meaning as well?-West Link to comment

miller1 0 Posted June 19, 2003 Wondering if I should have left it pink..Hmmmmmmm,,,,,, I added some cream & green to make it look like a bowl of sherbert. Did I achieve that?? Elizabeth Link to comment
Guest Guest Posted June 19, 2003 Great Elizabeth - a bowl of sherbert in a water color world, nice - Link to comment
livvie 0 Posted June 20, 2003 i would call it "victorian rose" it has a certain je ne sais quoi about it that says antique ... oh and of course ...it looks wonderful colours are great as is imho ...only improvement ... a possible change of frame to something more delicate ...but thats totally immaterial to the image.. not judging the frame Link to comment
jmcconnell2 0 Posted June 20, 2003 Yes I think you reached your goal. Beautiful composition and great effect. Only thing I notice, is the dark edge along the petal near the top. Also, I agree the frame is not the best for this image. I think it doesn`t need a frame at all. 6/6 Link to comment
armindo_lopes 1 Posted June 20, 2003 I really like the colors of the petals. They look so classic, so old style... Seems an old fashion rose. Link to comment
mclaine 0 Posted June 21, 2003 Flowers are a subject that I'm fairly tough on with my rating, so I feel obliged to offer a word of explanation for my 4/3. Flowers are perhaps the easiest subject to photograph, just pick one from the garden, put it on a table and shoot. They don't move, so you can experiment with lighting and angles easily. This is a straight on, single bloom, perhaps one of the most unoriginal ideas for a picture ever. High originality requires more than this. The colourisation is nice in a trite sort of way, the introduction of colours that weren't there have added a little interest. The heavily pixelised brown blurring in the corners is not attractive to me, and brings the aesthetics down. Link to comment
john_s._flannery 0 Posted June 25, 2003 Way to go, Miller Third try to congratulate you. You get a gold star on your forehead for composition, lighting, clarity, color selection and your unique recreation of the old "handcoloring style." Your framing and compatible color choices are simply excellent. To the flower denigrators; four months of allergies. Hope you get this one. jsf Link to comment
