green web (reflection of 2 green hair combs)by
AzCKellyComment by BMacD: Hi! Here’s a comment from the Critique Club.
First Impression:
Busy, interesting patterns, nothing in focus, white is bright
Composition:
Bright white distracting from the green. Some colour would have helped. Nothing really drew my attention. Busy, lots of geometric shapes.
Subject:
Don’t think the description in the title helped. I know when I voted on this picture, the title description threw me. You directed me to look for “the comb”, and not enjoy the “abstraction.”
Technical:
Given the post processing detail you provided, and your comment, you achieved the effect you were looking for. I wasn’t keen on the soft focus and lack of any sharp edges.
The white appeared blown. Some colour could have complemented the green and made the image more interesting.
Summary:
I liked your concept. Abstract is very subjective, what works for one may not for another. For me, I think your post processing may have gone for the wrong effect.
