Hello from the critique club
An appealing image that meets the challenge well
You've struck the right note with the warm vibrant colours of the flower very typical Kodachrome. I like your off-centre composition it works well and is nicely isolated from the very soft focus background. The background lacks any detail which is no problem but the brighter green strip is somewhat distracting it would have been a lot better if you could have had more uniformity of colour either dark or light throughout. Given the lack of detail in the background I think a smaller aperture, say f8, would have given you more DOF in the flower without bringing out too much detail in the background. All in all a pleasing image Stuart, its a shame you didn't have any other feedback... |
