SUCCESS!

::: Critique Club :::

Hi, my name is Kari and from the critique club.

First Impression - the most important one:
I think that this is a love it or hate it shot.

Composition:
This is the area I think that it lacks most. It is not working to any rule of photography that I know (and I don't know many) .. .and just seems like a little something in the courner of a whole big picture of a doorstep.

Subject:
It does say success ... even though I don't think it is a four leaf clover it is still a brave plant to grow in that little gap.

Technical (Colour and light):
The colours are over saturated with the red being too red. I think there is a little too much bakground in this shot and with a tighter crop on the growth it may have done better.

To grow its vote?:
You did ok ... keeep it up.

Summary:
A good safe shot .. you have a great eye for the unusual.

If you've got any questions about this critique, please feel free to contact me via
the PM system.

Cheers

Kari

So cool to have a response and it is amazing that the colours are natural .. I don't think I have ever seen any that are so crisp as these.

I appreciate your response ... and am always happy to hear from someone I have reviewed.

Cheers again

Kari

You will have greater success in the voting if you make your images larger.

It's hard to see the detail at this size.

Kinda small, and the crop/composition is very tight.

Disappointed that it's so small (making it hard to vote on fairly).

Picture is a bit small, hard to see details and colors are less than vibrant. Cool glass heart though.

I really wish this were a larger image. DPC has an excellent tutorial you may wish to check out so maximize the allowable size of your entries. TUTORIAL
Nice colors within the heart. The lighting is a bit uneven it appears, and the focus could be sharper
