hi Karma!! Greetings from the Critique Club
Sadly, I didn't get to finish voting on round, so I didn't get to vote on your picture, but I'm glad to have the opportunity to comment on it now.
Colour, Composition, Contrast:
I like this composition, its a simple, repeating pattern and the placement of the odd coloured ball is pleasing. However, I think the oranges could be a bit more saturated, as could the green. They just seem a tiny bit washed out. Maybe a little post-processing would have make them pop? :)
Focus and Lighting:
A lot of your comments picked up on the fact that the focus is off. Its not soft enough for any sort of emotive effect (nor do I think a soft focus would have been an effective choice for this particular composition unless just the green ball was in focus) and its not sharp enough to give us crisper lines and colours.
Overall: I like the idea, and your composition, it just need a bit more focus, and maybe something different with the lighting...perhaps a bit of a spotlight? or maybe a bar of light going across the shot? I am not sure, but just something a little different as what you have looks a tad uninspired (I hope that is not too harsh!!) I like this shot, and I think you scored quite respectably! :) |

| Ok. Now this green ball is a bit out of place I would say. I think you are a bit too close for the lens that you are using. This kind of reminds me of the movie "The Attack of the Killer Tomatoes." What is in the background? |

Great job!
Love the lighting, color tones and short title.
Did you filter the soft focus on this shot? |

| I do like the concept. But first of all, a more dramatic lighting should have been used. Secondly... wouldn't it have been cool if those were oranges? Then there would have been a contrast in texture as well. Just a thought! |
