The photographer is looking for generalized feedback about the aesthetic and technical qualities of their image.
Description
Everything comes in bloom in my yard. Also this " vuurdoorn" I think you all call it " Firethorn". It not happens often , but it’s fun to make images next to my backdoor.
Specific Feedback
I am mostly doing forest. How is this flora image in your opinion ?There is a lot to learn I hope.
Technical Details
F5.6, -2,33, iso 320
Critique Template
Use of the template is optional, but it can help spark ideas.
Ben, I like the flowers emerging from the darkness. The leaf and the areas that aren’t quite dark in the background are distracting, though. You might want to get rid of those.
Ben, These are nice flowers that contrast well with the background. I do feel there are too many flowers which then distract from the detail within the flower. Perhaps a closer photo of a smaller group such as the distorted T at lower left.
@Don_Peters , @Rob_Sykes Thank you both for your comment . Those leaves of this Firethorn in the background making the image more natural in my opinion. Without them there rests an almost abstract image. And that was not my intention. Only the distorted T as you suggest is a compleet different image which idea I also like. Ben
Beautiful composition, Ben. I love the flow of the flower clusters in this image. I suspect if you printed this at 16x20 or more, those that want detail of individual flowers could easily discover it.
