In my own image

i like the idea, but I have problems with the execution of it - primarily with you light: if you could have kept the clean focus on the 'picture', and yet kept more definition and shape in the hands, background etc. I think the shot would have had more impact. It looks on-board flash-lit, and that rarely makes for a strong image.

Candlelit Cups

Comment by ubique:
It's an OK photograph I guess, but I'm afraid I feel the subject is just not interesting enough to be worth shooting. Of course, several others also felt a candle was a worthy subject. I don't know if that vindicates my position or yours. Anyway, I can't rate it highly I'm afraid. Sorry. 4

Amazing capture. I love the whole atmosphere created in this one. There's so much depth in it and I love the dark foreground and the shadows + the angle of the light. Excellent stuff.

I like this but I wish the flower on the right wasn't cropped.

I like the out of focus background. It really works here for me. A solid 8

Nice idea. :-) I miss the bottom of the flowers and you lost some shades of the whites. Maybe a little bit of underexposing would have helped and then you could have helped midtones and shadows with post-processing. I know these flowers and I had some troubles last year photographing the texture too, because harsh sun made it more difficult to get the best exposure for whites and darks at the same time. I wouldn't have cropped it so tight on the right, tyou have cut off a part of that flower, but maybe I would have cropped a few cm on the top.
