The flower is pretty, but the photo is so bluury, it really takes away from it!
05/02/2006 05:32:19 PM
For a photograph this is very flat. There doesn't appear to be much tonality at all. Might be ok for other applications but for DPC you'll probably want to try and have as much depth to the photo as possible. Just my opinion though.

The pink is too bright for me, and I would prefer sharper focus.

Image is way overexposed along the edge. It is also very out of focus, though it appears some of your background leaves may have gotten the best of the focus. Color is off as well. Having a higher shutter speed, or even compensating your exposure to underexpose will help. Also if you have the capacity to do a white balance reading on the camera before shooting, often that will color correct for you.

you must get your image focussed first--the whites are blown out as well.
05/02/2006 02:41:02 AM
Nice composition, but the white looks totally burned out.
04/30/2006 03:46:21 PM
Overexposed, not complementary, and out of focus. I give this a three, simply for effort.
04/30/2006 01:47:59 PM
It's a little out of focus.
04/30/2006 12:41:14 PM
this shot might be better if it was sharper
04/30/2006 04:17:38 AM
focus could be much better, and you could have adjusted the colors to fit the challenge better.
you need ALOT of work on focus and light actually... 1.
04/30/2006 03:10:48 AM
This photo is a little fuzzy, and the colours are not what you would consider 'complementary'.
04/30/2006 03:02:32 AM
This needs to be a bit sharper I'm afraid
04/29/2006 07:05:58 PM
The white is quite blown out. You probably needed to expose about 2/3 stop less.
04/29/2006 05:01:42 PM
A little soft and too centered.
04/29/2006 10:24:13 AM
no critical focus is evident here also too much noise IMHO
04/29/2006 02:55:06 AM
Out of focus.
04/29/2006 12:35:16 AM
Looks out of focus to me.
04/29/2006 12:22:37 AM
A bit blurry my friend. But good compliments though.
04/28/2006 03:54:45 PM
the white is completely blown out.
04/28/2006 12:51:36 PM
Focus seems off to me.
04/27/2006 07:29:22 PM
out of focus and the highlights are completely blown
04/27/2006 05:23:27 PM
pretty bright. oof as well. unsure it is actually complimentary either.
04/27/2006 03:28:40 PM
2 - Don't mind the close crop, but the quality needs to be there. Not sure what you've done pp with this but it appears totally flat and void of detail. Color-wise, bordering on red, but not strongly enough in my opinion, although I realise that this flower may have been more red in person, but you haven't captured that, especially with the processing. For this Challenge, perhaps tweaking in pp may have helped you, but you'd still be left with the quality issues.
04/27/2006 07:30:43 AM
tooo blurry
04/27/2006 04:24:32 AM
Too out of focus I'm afraid
04/26/2006 07:25:41 PM
I feel that the focus needs to be improved an the white portions of the image are blown out. JMO.
04/26/2006 07:16:46 PM
good shot
make it more sharp focus
04/26/2006 05:01:36 PM
OOF and blown out
04/26/2006 04:07:48 PM
Focus, please! The picture is also overexposed (white petals have no detail, green leaves are washed out) and tahe overexposure also gives the main flower a merge with another in the background.
04/26/2006 11:29:10 AM
Overly processed? The white wipes out any sense of complementary colors. 5
04/26/2006 06:41:54 AM
Image is not in focus. I also don't see any complementary colours.
04/26/2006 06:23:16 AM
it is a little out of focus....
04/26/2006 02:16:19 AM
an out of focus flower...that's all I see here...sorry
04/26/2006 02:06:36 AM
Nice colors. DOF seems a little off.
04/25/2006 09:51:19 PM
