Canopy
by rjkstesch

Comment:
Unique approach. It seems like this photo is reversed of what the challenge calls for, and that is "Light on White". Here you have a white canopy against a yellow/beige background. JMO of course. :D Did you consider bringing the top line down on this (cropping so the top and the wall above are not in the frame)? Just a thought. Anyway, best of luck in the challenge.

Push Pin

Comment:
Wow. Pushed the envelope on this one with regards to visibility of the subject. :D If you had adjusted this to where the "pin" part of the pushpin was clear and focused (it's focused now, but noisy and muted) this photo would be stronger IMO. Yes, the pushpin would have been more defined as well, but being as it's white I don't imagine much impact would've been lost. All JMO of course. Good luck in the challenge.

Fallen

Yes, yes, yes. Very nice. I really like the 'Fallen' blossom. It adds a sense of balance and really draws the viewer in. Well done! Best of luck to you in the challenge.

If you're going to use flowers, at least use real ones. :D Nice concept and thought behind this. The lighting is fine and the photo is well balanced. Just that darn plastic... Good luck in the challenge.

Indiscriminant Shadows

This has a fun rhythm to it. Stock photo kind of feel as well. Nice job with the lighting overall. I think for this challenge I would have done a slight desat on the yellow, but that's JMO. Good luck in the challenge.

Crane and Blossom

Origami? Creative subject. Lighting seems to be off in this as your background is nowhere close to white, unless of course that was intentional. Good luck in the challenge.

Dumped in Limbo

Interesting expression on her face. While it's a neat photo, it seems so unrealistic and staged for some reason. The technicals are there and everything...I don't know, maybe if you had gone for a high-key look instead? Sorry I can't be more specific. I like it on technical merits, but not so much for the challenge I guess is what I'm saying. Best of luck to you in the challenge.

Winter is here

Interesting shadow play in this photo. Fun to look at and I like the POV you've taken in your approach to getting this shot. Overall, I think the photo is too dark for the intent of this challenge. The snow is your background (i.e. - "White"), and the branches/tree is your subject (which should be "Light"). JMO of course. Good luck in the challenge.

Backlit Bougainvillae

Comment:
This is nice overall. Not sure that there's enough "white" in the background in terms of what this challenge is about for many viewers/voters. Personally I think it's "ok", but borderline. I keep finding myself looking at the glass on the right, it's really an attention getter. Did you consider using a white vase of white glass/cup instead? Just a thought. The way you've put this together is interesting using the angle that you have - it works just fine this way. Could have used it in the 'Diagonal' challenge as well. :D Best of luck to you in the challenge.

Simplicity

Comment:
Simple is good. :D I don't know if it's the subject itself that makes it appear to be a little soft, but the leading edge of the tiara (sp?) isn't as sharp as I thought it would be (leading edge meaning the part where the large bottom jewels meet the material they are resting on). The high center point seems to be where this photo is the sharpest, but my eye is drawn to the lower left first. Anyway, sorry for the long ramble. I still like this entry for it's simplicity. Good luck in the challenge.
