I apologise, I am new to this and you are "stuck" with my comments. Pls. realise that this is *my* learning curve more than yours!
I like your interpretation of the theme. I LOVE the bottom part of your photograph - the leaf and the rusty surface. IMO, all you needed was to add a little blue of the background and you could have left it. I find the additional rusty barb wire, which is out of focus and "oversized" compared to the leaf distracting. the oversize, IMO really draws attention to the barb wire and I don't think that is where the viewers attention should be going. The same for the light reflections. Especially the bright one in the middle catches the eye. I like the colour combination you used and the DOF on the leaf and rusty sheet as well as the lighting on the leaf, making the shadow go "under" the leaf and hence not obscuring any of the rust it is lying on - very nicely done. |
