Lovely reds. I would like to have seen the focus a little sharper, and the light reflection on the vase is distracting to me. But other than that, I like the setup and shot.

Yum. I just got into loose leaf tea, and I'm never going back to bags.

Greetings from the Critique Club!

I like this colouful, poppy shot. This is a very tough shot to get especially if you're just learning about lighting, and that is a lot of work, so I appreciate that you did a very decent job here. There is a nice flow through the pic here, the lights/coloured glasses are all evenly distorted. The crop may be a little tight at the top, I know this is an Abstract challenge, but even so it never hurts to include a teeny bit more to give people a chance to get it :-)

Feel free to PM me,

Susan

Greetings from the Critique Club!

This is a very well done shot for both the challenge and, going by your comment, your newness to the wonderful world of photography. The leading lines and tones are fantastic and very BC-ish (lived there for 6 1/2 yrs). I see you have a good grasp on the technical stuff though on such a murky day, you probably could have shot at an even higher ISO and done no harm. Hubby's doing a great levitation, how many did it take?

Now for the nitpicky stuff...in all honesty the only thing I really would change is having him more to the other side of the bridge. He looks like he's heading out of frame. Looks like you're already crouched down using a low POV, of which I am a huge fan. I don't imagine getting him to wear brightly coloured footwear is much of an option though, is it? Now if this place is close to home, make the most of it and if you can talk him into it, try and reshoot a little and see what you get. Never hurts to shoot as much as you can.

Overall a great levitation and entry, keep up the good work!

Feel free to PM me.
