Or this is what happens when you've had too much to drink. Very disorienting.

Excellent. I love the way the physical structure of the space divides the image into frames so it really feels as if we are reading/seeing/witnessing/experiencing a continuing story. Perfect. Congrats on the Blue.

Great colors - funny to think of this as spring when the colors are perfect Christmas and that's winter here! Great composition.

No question that the square crop suits this one and frames the circular fan perfectly. Love the delicate, lacy look of the Oriental design.

Yes, the clouds are placed - and shaped just right! They add to the considerable impact from the perspective.

Well, it would definitely take it in a different stylistic direction than I intended with this edit. :-) Here, I'm going here for a warm, sun-faded matte/distressed-film treatment, so I've actually used some processing decisions to reduce rather than enhance contrast--and to introduce grainy imperfections. But admittedly, it's a stylistic voice that doesn't resonate with all viewers. And I'm far from the best I've seen at recognizing when and how to apply it effectively. But since it seems to be popular in stock photography right now, especially among DTC brands in the fashion and progressive lifestyle space, I'm experimenting with ways to incorporate it into my portfolio of work.

Appreciate your kind words!


Got it. I kind of wondered whether the faded look was intentional.

Nice focus and I like having the bee centered so the square crop works well. What does a contrast boost do for it?
