The photographer is looking for generalized feedback about the aesthetic and technical qualities of their image.
Description
I love photographing the pomegranates for their color and shape. Hidden inside are the sweet seeds to be plucked out. I liked the way my two images came together with the third dark texture image on top.
Specific Feedback
I am interested in the overall impression, color and composition or any other thoughts.
I’m not sure if this is the correct critique category.
Technical Details
Olympus Mark II camera:
Pomegranate image: Olympus 60mm F2.8 Macro lens, ISO200, 60mm, f/4.5, 1/400

Critique Template
Use of the template is optional, but it can help spark ideas.
Ann Louise, this is a very compelling image! I love your vision and execution here. The bright colours and BG are unique and quite mesmerizing. I personally like the offset comp, as I think it adds interest. Fits the Abstract category perfectly, IMO.
Very fine work - and I hope to see much more this year. Happy New Year!
Hi Ann Louise. This is an interesting image. I like the way you layered it and the parts go together well. In terms of composition it feels a little biased to the right to me with lots of extra room on the left and crowding the edge on the right. If it were mine, I’d probably recrop by removing about half the empty space on the left and adding the same on the right. Other than that minor issue I really like this.
@Don_Peters, @SandyR-B, @Dennis_Plank: Thank you for your impressions and comments! Dennis, thank for pointing out the uneven spacing. It is funny how you can study a photo to look for things to fix and miss the most obvious.
@Don_Peters@Diane_Miller@Dennis_Plank@SandyR-B :Thanks Diane for your comments. I just posted the cropped version. I do like it better. Couldn’t figure out how to download the repost up under the original version. Many thanks to all.
At the bottom, you’ll see a pencil icon. Just click on that to enter the edit mode for the original post. You’ll then see a screen like this (without my red instructions):
Just click at the top to put your cursor there, then use the upload icon in the upper tool bar to load your new image. Since you’re in the edit mode, you can add test above or below the image strings to identify which is the original and which the repost. You can also edit the title bar to indicate that you’ve added a repost which alerts people to go take another look.
When you’re don, just click the yellow “Save Edit” at the bottom of the edit screen.
@Dennis_Plank : Dennis thanks so much for showing me how to add the photo. I can follow everything except the line above about adding “test”. What are image strings?
