wish the focus had been into the center as well

Like the colors here, but the hightlights seem a little too blown out to me.

I think if you had isolated the main flower, as opposed to having the peripheral flowers it would allow the viewer to focus on a main object.

It looks a bit overexposed as well as oversaturated. Hard problem to fix in PP. Good composition though!

the black bg works well

It's a little edgy with the heavily saturated colors. If a bit more of the flower were in focus, it would be helpful, too.

a little blown out.

On my computer, there is a huge loss of detail on the bottom petals from what looks like possible over exposure? IMHO, I would crop the right to remove the extra flower and take a bit off the left, leaving the long bud visible. The right flower does nothing to add interest to the photograph. :)

This is quite pretty but i think the limited colour palette and the red / green fringing robs the image of a little bit of fidelity.

More depth and better lighting would have been nice here. Crop a bit off at right

I wish this wasn't quite so saturated, and that there was a more obvious focal point. I like the subject and the composition very much.....4

Really interesting exposure and glowy feeeling.

Nice saturated colours, good detail on the flower but background is distracting and the flower is a bit too centered.

a bit over saturated to my eye.

I like the slight grain.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
01/22/2010 02:08:48 PM
just a bit to bright...and your focus is off a touch as well
  Photographer found comment helpful.

nice contrast of the yellow against the black

colors are oversaturated & lacking in details. Try to isolate the subject better. 4

This feels oversaturated and a bit out of focus as well. The subject choice isn't the most pleasing either, the background flowers look wilted and the foreground one looks like it's on its way too.
