great picture - if that bee would have just been facing the other way for you.... how inconsiderate... I really like the tones

I'm not much for receiving or giving comments, but since Candids are
near and dear to my heart, I have decided to give comment on every entry
in this challenge.

Nice dof or flower challenge photo, but not a candid. In photography, one expects to see a person or persons in an out of the ordinary pose or situation that shows a story or emotion. Here we have a branch with flowers. No real candid here.

I think this oculd be improved by making the bee much more prominent in the picture, by cropping or moving in closer.

ok, there's a bumblebee in there, but did you seriously think this would be a great entry for this challenge? whatever. if your score isn't where you would like it to be, you might want to read this thread

I guess you can take candid pictures of animals but its just not the same kind of emotion or story that gets portrayed. Also Its a bit hard to find the bee. Perhaps if you desaturated all but the yellows.

the subject is lost in this photo. It took me three times viewing the image to realize there is a bee on the flower.

this foto totaly does not fit in the candid challenge. where is the spontaneousness in this picture? it should be more like be put in a nature challenge.

Weird processing and miles away from the subject of the challenge, imho.

More color please

Such a graceful, sensitive image, and such interesting processing.
04/12/2006 03:40:13 PM
This is a nice composition, but I didn't even see the bee until I read the title and looked for it. It gets really lost in the B&W.

Odd toning in the background. Would have liked a complete desat to B&W rather than the partial desat shown here. Picture is very sharp - well done. Not to sure about its fit in this challenge.
