id rather have the picture sharp and in focus then a blur added then have an out of focus picture. But, nice colors and nice lighting! Great balance between lights and darks too.
id try a reshoot and you will have a shot to hang on your wall!

Moody & a bit "soft-focus" overall, but nice composition. :)

Interesting colors in this shot. The border is far too large and takes away the
"canvas" that is available for the picture.

Not really focused well. Exposure is a little strange (perhaps it appears so do the focus issues)

Composition is okay. Nothing extraordinary beyond what the florist did in creating the arrangement to begin with.

The challenge: Meets the challenge? Sort of. I don't get a feeling of stillness in this shot however that again may be due to the focus issues. My eye wanders around the frame trying to find something that is in focus thus creating an "agitated" feeling.

I wish the flowers were a little clearer because the colors aer awesome!
04/03/2007 12:26:41 PM
I'sorry, but it's out of focus

I wish this image was a little more crisp and I don't think you need such a wide boarder. Good job otherwise.
03/31/2007 05:11:57 AM
too blurry, sorry.
03/30/2007 06:23:45 PM
Blurry-ish. But it's a nice shot.

not very sharp ... what's up with the huge white border? ... use that space to show the details in your image ...
03/29/2007 06:31:52 PM
Very out of focus. And why the large white border?
03/29/2007 05:57:53 PM
Nice colors, the frame works okay, but it is way too blurry.
03/29/2007 11:02:46 AM
Focus is very soft IMHO
03/29/2007 03:15:15 AM
Blurry, out of focus and not very interesting anyway i'm afraid.

Seems like the shot isn't in the best of focus, but it's hard to tell after it was kinda shrunken into an unnecessarily massive border.

This is lovely but it looks like you used a PS filter and I don't think that is allowed in Basic Editing. Good Luck
03/27/2007 09:57:22 PM
It's a neat arrangement, but this appears to be out of focus.
03/27/2007 09:01:44 PM
everything looks out of focus here and the border is taking up a ton of space..
