Day 10 - The calm before the storm

Comment by Tuckersmom:
I like the lines of the flowers and grasses, not the buildings, I'd crop those out like others have said. You might want to try this in black and white or some type of toning. Sometimes if I get colors I just can't (or am too lazy to try) to get right, I just duotone and then it looks like it's intentional!

Nice orange flowers. They are a little lost within the scenery. I would suggest a closer crop to remove some of the foreground greenery and most of the sky. If you like the backgorund to include the sky and buildings, you might consider adding in a gradient fill layer to add a bit of colour to the sky and sort of blur the buildings a bit.

Good Girl / Bad Girl

Comment by xianart:
a great idea, but i'll agree with the comments about over-sharpening. all the textures become distracting, and make the image shallower, until it becomes about the surface texture of the image, rather than what the image contains. i think a simpler composition, without the tree, forcing the viewer to really look at the girls, might have served you better.

Nice greens and shadows in the background. A little bright on the upper flower petals.
