The photographer is looking for generalized feedback about the aesthetic and technical qualities of their image.
Description
A few of our day lilies bloom throughout the year. I shot this pair a few days ago. The twisted stigma caught my eye and there was a good BG to work with.
Specific Feedback
I plan to print this for my office and would like your opinions regarding the unaltered image vs the light and dark vignette versions.
Technical Details

Critique Template
Use of the template is optional, but it can help spark ideas.
I prefer lighter vignettes, so this is a bit heavy for me, but that’s just me. The colors are so rich and I really like the positioning of both blooms. I prefer the slight clean up job on the first one, too. This will look excellent on your wall. One question though, are you a fan? I have some TS on vinyl and still give it a spin now and then. Dee can still rip into it even now.
Kris: Vinyl? What’s vinyl? Can’t say I’m a big fan and not sure I could recall anything other than the name. Of course I’m convinced that my gray hairs are memory cells that have escaped so I may have to snoop around Apple music and check them out.
All are beautiful. Which one you print and hang depends, of course, on your own preferences and your office space and environment. I prefer the dark vignette because it is more elegant, if that makes sense, but it may not be a good choice for your office.
