Sun flower

This image makes me think of the photo experiments done by Hiro, a fashion photographer active in the 1960's and serventies... or even some of the studio work by Irving Penn.

 

BUT the saturation and brightness seem a bit flat on my monitor, and the sharpness isn't that crisp.. if those things were really good, it would have a very magazine-crisp feeling, due to the crop and the intense moment of the water droplets on the flower. There is a beginning of interesting work here that is much more interesting than most flower-photo images.

Rain out of the blue?

My son (also on photo.net Martijn Ronche) took this picture in my garden with my camera. I like it.

No, blue after the rain.

Were your uncommented (negative) ratings of my photos somehow affected by my comment above regarding the sunflower? That would be very sad - but human.

If not, I apologize for my suspicion and would appreciate comments explaining your dislike of my photos. I'd really be interested in intelligent critique rather than stupid revenge.

Thanks

 

Both, I'm sorry. I deleted my rating Blue House.

I don't like it but it is not that bad.You also dislike my kind of photo's (very very bad ratings)

 

Do not take my ratings personal. I have looked at your photos and I don't find them pleasing, that's right. The sun flower is one of the best in my opinion. Some cats are ok too. But good photography is more than just taking a photo of pets. It's rather painting than shooting. You don't need to like mine, but look at some of the top member rated photos like Tony Dummet. Maybe you will understand my ratings of your photos.
