When I took this picture, it was not intended for the AA challenge. The comment made regarding the background is quite valid but when taken, I used a red background. Only when I decided to change it to B/W did I realise I should really have used a black background, then I would not have needed to burn it as I had to.
This is only the 3rd challenge I have entered and I am always encouraged by the comments I receive.
Last entry was 83rd this one 66th....... going in the right direction! Thanks all
The one thing that does amaze me is that I received 1 from one person and 6 tens? how can views vary so much? I see this happens with many entries.
I like the simplicity of this and the way that the stem leads to the corner of the frame. There seems to be a bit of a 'glow' around the flower on my monitor - I don't know whether it's meant to be there or not, but I quite like it.
Nice low key macro shot. Was this lit with a spot light? The flower almost seems to radiate of its own internal light source. Possibly a little less of the smudging on the outside of the flower (little less glow) would have been nice too. 6
This is the beginning of a great photo. The burning of the background around the flower is visible though... Exposing this flower for the highlight and using a black background tilted to an angle where no light would hit it would force the background to perfect black without the need to edit it...
without color flowers tend to lose their photographic power...at least thats me...but the photo is well taken and composed well sharp and clear...thats gotta be worth a 6
