65 Mar 17 Comment Hi Anu
I agree that you're very creative with leaf painting, but I do agree with Janos that there's a lot going on here. In any image there needs to be a central focus point. There are so many elements to see, there's no where to rest my eyes. Almost any piece of this image could be cropped and become a story in itself. The image is nice and sharp and also has good depth. I agree with Mary that an adjustment of lighting would make the image stronger. Less intensity or using a diffuser. I played a bit with the image, but couldn't do too much with the hot spots. I tend to under expose because I don't do well adjusting hot spots. 		Mar 18th
65 Mar 17 Comment Hi Charles
Very nice image. I think you did a very good job toning down the distracting highlights and removing the leaves seen in the original image. There is a black spot on the bottom left leaf, and on the bottom of second cupped ruffle (from the bottom) isn't as sharp as the rest of the image. But that's nitpicking. I agree with Mary that the image has nice composition, and I find it tranquil. Nice work.

I'll be working with my ring flash this weekend as I really need the practice. 		Mar 17th
65 Mar 17 Comment Hi Erick

Nice choice for an image. I agree with Mary that the image is soft. You don't mention if this is a hand held image and I think knowing that is important. If I had to take this image hand held, it wouldn't just be soft, it would be unrecognizable. A faster shutter speed, or tripod would help make the image crisp. In addition, cropping to isolate one or three blossoms would remove the bright blue in the background which is a bit distracting. You have a really good eye for interesting subject matter. 		Mar 15th
65 Mar 17 Comment Hi Mary

Your image choice is really nice and the reflection is interesting. I thought it was just a bit blown out so I took your image, brought down the highlights and added a bit of saturation, contrast and selective hue with Nik software. Love the pinks and darkening the reflection was a really good idea as it had the desired effect. 		Mar 15th
65 Mar 17 Comment Great true macro image! Colors are rich and full and the depth of scales are really well done. If anything were to be done, I might try to sharpen the nose a bit and put a very small boarder around the image to contain the left side. As far as smiling...not so sure about that, he (she?) looks a bit grumpy, but no doubt this reptile is definitely posing for you. Great image. Mar 12th
