Love the tones in this shot and the idea you were going for. I think it might have been a bit more effective if you had included more of the flowers at the bottom though. Just my opinion, but the image seems a hair too abruptly cut off at the bottom. Otherwise, great job.
i used to have flowers like these in my yard. they were awesome. i don't know if i love the placement of the subject in this picture though. maybe if u did more of a closeup on the flowers it'd be more interesting? but that's just my opinion. nevertheless good job!
I think the lighting and colouring is very appropriate for the mood. I would have liked to see more of the lillies, though. They could have filled 2/3 of the frame and you would still have been able to see the background.
Fine work, nailed the concept.
I needed to scroll image on my 15' screen, took a few times to see the tombstone, then true impact struck me.
Really effective picture.....10
I think the cut off flower needs to be in or out. The capture of personification isn't bad. Better than most, but there are a number better than this as well. The middle lily seems to be a bit overexposed. 6
Beautiful shot. However, I have to argue that less of the personification is in the photograph and more in the mind of the photographer. In other words, all flowers do become like that after a while; it's up to you whether you're in the mood to see them as personification of sorrow, or just withered flowers. The picture by itself, without the title, doesn't incline me towards that mood.
Very nice. You could think that the unused space on the top would be distracting, but I think it just embrases the emphasizes the impression the flower gives. I like this one. One of my favourites in this challenge.
