    HI Brice. This is an interesting concept, but the flowers have a "pasted in" look (photoshoped?). I'm not sure what you're trying to achieve. I would go for a more abstract look with this image. Good masking technique however, the flower edges look clean and you retained all the fine hairs on the stems.

    Compositionally superb. I really like how the small leaf and vine provides additional delicate elements that compliment the butterfly. Nice soothing background and good lighting too.

    Well done Yagmur. It looks like you made use of a vignette to focus attention on the subject - great idea and effectively applied. I really like how the strong color in the woman's skin and dress contrasts with the more monochromatic values in the image.

    Nice image Janis. I would like to have seen the highlights tamed a bit in the yellow petals. Sometimes it's hard to avoid highlight loss with digital cameras, so as a precaution I shoot regularly at -1/3 to -1/2 stop. I then attempt to extract lost detail from the shadows during post processing if necessary. I shoot a Nikon D90 which has a tendency to overcook highlight detail. You can also bracket and pick the best one.

    I had to look at it for a few moments to figure out what it is. The red in the center really draws the eye. Very intriguing shot.

    Hi Christopher. Good lighting and color, and I like the composition too. I'm a real stickler for sharpness, however, and got the impression that the image lacked necessary sharpness in the upper right. Rating: 5/6.

    Good shot Oguz. My one suggestion would be that the lighting seems a bit dull and color balance may be a bit blue or cyan (shot in overcast conditions?). I like the pose captured in the shot, he's definitely been busy making his hands dirty.

    It always amazes me how a portrait with two or more people looking in different directions really opens up and becomes so much more 3-dimensional. Well done.

    Man I wish that were my image! It just doesn't get any better. The image transports the viewer to another place and time. I can almost hear the ocean spray.

    Jerry,

     

    I think this is one of the most original bird shots I've ever seen. This is good news since bird photography for me can get old and worn out very quickly, especially when its just one straight portrait shot after another. Great creativity.
