Critique Club Review:
Color, Saturation, and Hue: N/A image is monotone
Brightness and contrast: Highlights are about at the limit in the bright areas (see flower to left of bulb base) shadow holds details well.
Focus and depth of field: Background distractions are nicely minimized, but closest flowers go a bit soft. (see bottom edge of lower right flower.) Maybe one more f-stop would have helped.
Subjective: Meets challenge well. I like the idea, but the lightbulb is centered, a rule of thirds no-no for technical voters. Break the rule only if you have a good reason. I think the bulb just does look a little bit just stuck in there.
I do really like the way you matched the flowers to the bulb. Nice work. At first I thought I would rather have seen this image in color. But as I sit with it a bit, you have won me over and I can see your vision. |
