Greetings from the Critique Club!

I love to see Lensbaby shots, they are so cool. Very nice surreal feel to the shot with the blur and soft light. I was disappointed to see this finish so low, especially in a Fine Art challenge. I think this image has plenty of artisitic merit...however, it does lack the dpc-friendly hit of saturation that voters love.

Lighting is soft and natural, the dof especially coming in from the left is very effective in bringing that daisy forward. I do agree that a tighter crop on the right may have helped strengthen composition. The lit diagonal area adds a sense of place.

Overall an unconventional shot, but I like to see the boundaries being pushed. Keep up the good work and oob thinking!

Feel free to PM me with any questions,

Susan

4 - Title is a little cliche for me, a more refined crop, especially upper right make this better in my opinion.

Man, I missed some real gems the first run through. I didn't give my original vote on this much thought but seeing it again I really like it. Even though it is a photo of a flower, which DPC has many of in most challenges, I feel as though the way you composed this with the colors and blur and all really fits the theme of this challenge well. Bumping your score upward, good luck.

Great angle and perspective. I'm looking forward to see what lens you used. Cute model, of course. You knew that. 9

Great perspective! The clouds look a little odd around the edges of the trees and I think the image is a little underexposed (especially on his face), but overall I love this photo :D
