This is a wildly well done photo! I'm having a hard time seeing this as a postcard, maybe a greeting card (sympathy - don't be down...sort of thing). The focus and composition are wonderful! 6 Rob the Swash

Comment by helgihelgi:
I cut the camera out of an old magazine ad and crumpled it a bit, then shot it against a white backdrop. I bumped up the brightness and contrast in Photoshop to get the white I wanted, and to burn out the top/left edges.
But I think this would've worked much better with a crumpled image of a yellow flower against a blue sky for example. Something a bit more lively than the camera ad.

Thanks for the comments people :)

Comment by JPR:
yes. you definetely got ripped off. This is by far the best one (other than the original logo of course, which is why i didn't bother submitting). Great job.

Comment by sagestudio:
This is very artistic. I love the mood of this shot, but not sure it'd make the best postcard. If it'd been in the Flora challenge I wouldn've given it a 9 or 10.

You got ripped off -- this was easily the best in the bunch.

Did you do the crumple effect with Photoshop, or was this really a photo that was wadded up?

Comment by tyrkinn:
Excellent shot, the color of the flower is a great contrast to the black/gray tones. Flawless - a 10.

This is a good picture - I'm not sure how good of a postcard it is. It doesn't look appealing - with the one flower bent over and stuff.

Gorgeous image, but not very postcardy, I'm afraid. What it really looks like is one of those Successories or 'Despair.com' motivational posters.

Great shot - but postcard? There was a requirement to be relevant to your location in the challenge, and this could be anywhere. Still a great photo, but not as it stands for this challenge.
