All Day Drizzle

Composition was too spread out. Needed to bring the leaves in closer to the lily. Maybe a different angle. Loved the added soft focus.

Thought the motion was too much.

At the Scent of Rain

Comment:
Very cool shot. I love the added softness. Makes it look surreal. I think it is a likely candidate for a challenge entitled Alfred Hitchcock. I gave it a 6 because I don't think I see rain in it. I am putting it in my portfolio as a favorite, though.

Needs more contrast. Picture looks a little dirty. Try shooting with a smaller file or pixel.

Great close-up of the center of the petunia(?) Could have been cleaner and more crisp.

Some people use grain as a creative tool. I saw a lot of grain in this one. Did you shoot in RAW? My camera has a TIFF setting, and I notice when I shoot at TIFF, the compression leaves way to much grain. It is because the file is so large, that it can't handle such compression, but when enlarged to poster size it looks really awesome. Try using smaller files for these challenges if you can, because it helps to clear up alot of noise and grain.

Geese love the rain

Comment:
Somewhat muddy. Hard to get clean shots in the rain, as I discovered with the 100 or so that I took. Did you use flash? Might have added some fill in light on the geese if you had.

Rain Off the Umbrella

Comment:
Looks like you put a light under the umbrella to separate it from the background. Excellent idea, but it may have added an overcast to the composition which happens sometimes with incandescent light or flashlights.
