Beautiful lighting and color...Would have liked it a bit more in the budding state so it fits the challenge better but I can see where you're going with this.
The leaves look more red than green, did you turn up the red (maybe a touch or twoooo, tooo much? or maybe an enhansing filter?) The shot is very clear and the angle of the hydrangia is interesting, but I just can't get over the red saturation. What color was the plate (besides the trim)? 7 Swash
I would have used a title something like "Freshly picked" rather than use the word NEW in the title. Overall, a good picture, interesting to use an ordinary dinner plate for background. It seems a little shadowy on the right, but it's still nice and clear even in the dark parts, and balance is good.
The color cast works pretty well for this image to set the mood it could possibly be a little lighter though. The dominant shadows on the right and the somewhat shallow depth of field also help the photos mood. Good job. Score: 6 Courtenay
...and aparrently about to be eaten. Why is it on a plate? :) Seriously, though - focus and depth of field are excellent. The lighting and colour are also great as is the framing.
I'm not usually very impressed with photos of flowers, however it's the color that draws me to this one. It's a LITTLE dark on the right side, but I think that was probably not avoidable due to the lighting. If it were possible to lighten it up a bit, you could try that but ONLY if it didn't take away from the beautiful color. I think the color is more important. Very nice! Congrats and good luck in the challenge.
Something new. Composition - quite good Technical Aspects - quite good, good use of lighting Meets Challenge - yes Visual Impact / Originality – quite good Jim msp
I like the feel of this pic but don't like the yellowish tone. I think a more specific focus would stop my eyes from "jumping around". Sorry ... I don't mean to be harsh ... it's just my 2 cents. :-)
