| Looking over images taken with the same lense and cam across this...voted high in the challenge, liked the image. There is a lot of depth with real nice flow in this image. The subtle variations in color are very nicely portrayed. Very nice image! |

Robert, For what its worth, my opinion... The technicals in this image are good. What I think this image lacks is a point of focus. Not camera focus, but more of a 'where do my eyes go' focus. Since this is more of an abstract image, my eyes tend to go to the lights and darks. The lightest lights and the darkest darks have no texture. So I look at the edges, the changes in tonality. The edges fall across the image randomly with no order or pattern for me to follow. The strongest lines swoop me down to the bottom right - into a jumbled mass. This makes the entire image seem to be draining out of the bottom right. The strong black at the top left reinforces that. Hope what I stated makes some sense... |
Yes, it makes perfect sense. That's the dynamic of the composition. Rule of thirds it ain't :-) Be a good one for Setzler's "breaking the rules" class, actually. |

| Interesting shot. I think the lighting is a little harsh, causing you to lose some detail (especially given the mushroom's naturally light color). You've got good DOF and I like the composition (& border). |

| A really well taken photo of a really unattractive subject! I'm not trying to offend you, by the way. I think your photo is well-done. Nicely exposed. It's just not really a terribly enticing mushroom ;-) |
