I like the color gradient on the right side and how it fades to left. It would be nice to see more of the structure. 6

Ivy and Palm

Critique Club Review:

Your picture is loaded with detail, which tends to defeat the goal of a soft focus photo. What happens is that the eye still struggles to make out the detail, and the viewer comes away frusrtrated. In this case the detail is not lost, but neither is a soft focus effect gained.

The bark of the palm tree tries to steal the eye away from the ivy. The rings pull the eye up, up, up. Your lighting and color saturation are good. This just wasn't the ideal subject for a soft focus photo.

Nice colors. The front two pillars on the right seem to have some effects from light scatter which detracts (IMO) from the impact.

Very nice! I only wish you would have made the image closer to the max size because i want to see more. Very nice indeed!

nice colors, a little dark, and the crop seem tight on top.
