Not sure what´s causing it but the lack of sharpness is hurting this photo in my opinion. Wether that´s cause the subject is just blurry by nature or lack of focus doesn´t really matter.

A little bit too dark for my taste, would have wanted to see this almost a full stop brighter.

Nice lighting, needs something extra though to get a higher score from me than 6.

Nice DOF and bokeh.

I like the DOF, you might want to watch the lighting next time as the bottom plate the flower stands on blows out and thus draws my eye there and not to the flower.

Pretty nice, but in this photo, I would have preferred it if everything was in focus, it kindof bothers me a little that the top of the grass in the upper right corner is out of focus. Lighting is good though.

That´s pretty cool, how long did it take to put this together?

Greetings from the critique club :)

Well this is it for me, the 100th critique club comment I give so now I can cross off yet another thing on my "DPC to do list 2007".

I thought I would make the 100th critique extra in depth but I don´t really have all that much to say about this image as I mostly like it.

It´s a good shot and one I probably would have voted a 6 or a 7, depending on how well I thought it stacked up to the rest of the photos in the challenge.

It´s well exposed and composed, I do like the tones in the image as well as the contrast and sharpness in the photo. I don´t really care for the big blotch of blown highlights in the right side of the photo but it´s not something that is bothering me a whole lot either.

Well that´s it basically, I like this shot. However, I can´t really help but compare it to photos from other people like Philos who has taken a lot of windmill photos and sorry, this doesn´t really stack up to his photos, but still, this is a good photo, I am just showing you why I would "only" give this a 6 or a 7.

Kind regards from Iceland, Lárus.

Well sorry, I see you are only 15 so I hope you don´t let this score and finish in the challenge get you down, just get back on the horse and chalk this up to experience, just took a look at your portfolio and it looks promising.

Just have to stop next time and ask yourself, "will other people find this photo interesting?" before submitting. I mean, it´s just a plant, field and blue sky and well, frankly I kindof agree with what JunieMoon had to say.

You also might want to try sharpening after resizing for the challenge, as it is this photo looks kind of out of focus, wich I am sure it wasn´t.

Kind regards from Iceland, Lárus.
