Originally posted by sidpixel: Hello from the critique club An appealing image that meets the challenge A very appropriate choice for the challenge it is certainly very colourful. Your composition is good too, the red dinosaur is particularly dominant but not too overpowering leaving room for the blue dinosaur too. What I think lets it down is your selections for the saturation, it is obvious in the paler portions of the sky in the more intricate areas that were not included in your original selection. Overall a good and appropriate image for the challenge, well done.

Thank you very much for your valuable comments. Your point on the sky, well noted.

It was a pale morning sky. I tried to crank up the sky, but I didn't manage to get the effect. Will work on it again on my own to check on how to make it more popped.

Hello from the critique club

An interesting image that contributes well to the challenge

Your image certainly fulfils the challenge brief well Gin Tay. I like your composition with the curve of the river taking you from the foreground into the background beyond together with its reflections. The symbol that forms the main focus point in the centre is, I assume, identifying with the theme that you mention in your notes, I have to say I find both somewhat confusing but that is probably down to my own lack of perception. You have a nice range of tones in your mono presentation which works nicely.

This would have been a famous picture in the 70's. The choice of colors are flashy and almost hurting my eyes, but it is greatly composed and finally all comes together blended as a whole. A 6 from me

this is a fascinating piece of art, but a photo of art is the opposite of the challenge

I don't know if this is art or just a photo of art, but I'm leaning towards the latter. That said, I love the photo.

The composition is lovely with the strong base at bottom left and that lovely sinuous stalk reaching up in to the frame topped by the gorgeous yellows of the petals. I love the pastel shades and the lighting sets it all off really well. The soft focus background is nicely done too with just enough and not too much detail to detract from the flower itself, a lovely job well done.

Thank you for your time to review this image. Appreciate very much your valuable comments.

cheers
