I did the previous.... (moving)... alot of better photogs... used their Camera knowing it... to do great things.....

i gave it a 5.. which i feel is sort of an average vote. The black background was a good choice, but it didn't really stir up any emotions or thoughts inside of me. I am not sure what i would have done differently.. or how i would have painted it different... but it looked like a vase with light flashed on it... as apposed to a picture that created thought, or intrigue or reflection, or just a nice combination of shapes and colors...

maybe (not saying that i know).. but maybe if you had higlighted the rim quite bright... then left the neck quite dark... and then highlighted the pattern area on the widest part, then let it get slowly darker as it went lower. With the painting with light theme you could illuminate this object quite creativly. Right now it is illuminated in the same stile as if there was a single light source from the frong right..... just some thoughts... take them with a grain of salt.

Why two people have said the bright spot is on the top left, I don't know? But I must say that the bright spot looks like it was added after the picture was taken. Whether it was or not, it is a little distracting. A more even light distrobution would be preferred. Good shot.

Very very pretty. I really like the dark tones here and the texture of the vase against the black background. Very nice composition.

I would prefer to see the entire vase, or a portion of the detail. The way the bottom is cut off gives a sense of incompleteness.
The lighting is done beautifully.

Nice warm colours and well composed. I think that it is a little to dark and the bright upper left does not look too natural to me.
