"Two flowers"

Comments and rates would be highly appreciated.

 

Thank you.

I love roses! Perhaps a tighter crop would look nice too?

Good shot...Contrasting styles of the flowers are nicely captured.

Nice rose, good colors, but I like more that with the crop! 6/6

Yeah, Tighter crop would be a better choice. It would be also nice to see a better DOF only if the roses behind is sharper.

Agree that the tighter crop & the sharpness enhance the petals details. But the original is still a beautiful rose in the softer version.

Un bello encuadre,, composicion,,,y un color muy bien saturado,,, saludos.

The original is nice with the soft background,in the croped one the rose is accentuated.good details. Pnina

Nice shot Pulok. Great colours. I have to agree that the cropped version is more striking but your version has a softness that I enjoy as well. Perhaps adding the black colour to the frame also helped accentuate it.

elegant rose great colours and lovely DOF!! I think the crop version offered by Don has more strenght in it :-)

Hello Pulok.

 

A red rose - very appropriate for 23rd April, which is St George's day!

 

This is a well executed photograph! - the secondary area of red in the out of focus background, serves to stregthen the image. The focusing of the red rose is spot on, and the high contrast red/green composition is both striking, and powerful!

 

Regards, Nick.

Nice flower macro

I love the colours. Nice DOF and background. Beautiful picture. Kind regards.

Pulok, love the beautiful rose! 7/6 Best regards.

Gorgeous capture of a wonderful Rose.

Beautiful rose and capture. I also feel a tighter crop will do justice to the rose,Pulok.

Nice rose.

for the nice criticism and rates.

 

Don Bailey; Thank you very much for the PS work on my photo.

 

I didn't want to crop out the beautiful green background. Now I feel, after getting the feedback, that I could try to increase the shrapness as Don did using USM. Actually while applying USM, I generally check the larger version (~3MP) image, then reduce to (~1MP) for uploading to PN. I don't try USM on the final image which is wrong as I came to know now.

 

Kindest regards....

I am of two minds about crop non-crop. While the cropping suggested does enhance the beauty of the rose in the foreground, I also liked the three buds peeking in the background. Anyway, whatever you decide, the macro is really good.

so beautiful.greetings.

Pulok .. I'm for the background .I like your crop it give it much space , much nicer ...!

Althought he crop is pretty but I,too, like the background, nice colors.

Thank you for commenting on my "sun gazer" image. Howeer, I had to change the image in order to remove an imperfection in it. If you'd like, you rate and comment again.

kind regards.
