Critique Style Requested: Standard
The photographer is looking for generalized feedback about the aesthetic and technical qualities of their image.
One of the first experiments with botanical macro this spring. I tried different perspectives on this dandelion head to separate out the individual seeds.
Composition and interest. Does the image cause the viewer to ask questions?
Taken with an OM systems 90mm macro lens. Natural light.
I am a bit of a dandelion fan, so your photo has captured the default market! The pieces I really like are:-
The rhs highlights do not detract from the single seed focal point
You have used positioning well, so as to isolate the sharp single light seed against a darker background
The remainder of the image is a supporting act to the single seed and gives puff ball context
Well done
Another dandelionophile (!) here Rob and you’ve done a great job. I love the light on the right and it would be interesting to see if lifting the warmth a little across the whole image worked for you. A good take on this subject - well done 
Bill, this is lovely. It’s a fine mix of dreamy and real with the two sharp seeds anchoring the middle and the fine "fan’ shape.
Thank you Rob. I appreciate the feedback.
Thank you. Bill
Thanks Mark. Bill
Bill: Really good selective focus on the main subject and I like the light and color you have on the right side. The bunch on the left side does pull my eye and a crop making them go away works better for me. Just my 2¢. Overall very nicely conceived and executed.>=))>
This is the kind of photograph I only get to dream about, so let me simply say I love it!
Thank you Bill.
Thanks Tom.
This is beautifully done, Bill! This is absolutely just a nit, and something I would try if it was my image: I would bring up exposure just a tad, and lower the contrast just a little, which might give this image an even more dream-like effect. Stunning as is!
