Simple but very effective. A little more contrast between the front piece and the background could be used imo, but I like the composition.

okay - there really appears that you have 1 flower, 1 jar, and 1 carpet fuzz ball....but given that this has a beautiful story behind it, and is technically very well done, I wont hold the three items against you. :-)

Hi from the Critique Club.

Wow, "kinda" hand held at 3.25 seconds. Pretty sharp i'd say considering.

Your pic is a wonderful abstract with a good balance between light and dark as well as some nice angular elements which contrast well with the curves.

I tend to agree with some of the commentators that either a darker sky or a bluer twilight sky would have been beneficial. but, as you said, sometimes conditions just dont work out as you hope. I really like the red and yellow colors and they provide a very nice balance.

As it relates to the challenge, i think it scored well, considering some of the other pictures which were entered. I believe the majority of DPC voters favor real vs. abstract when it comes to voting.

Good finish and one that you might want to try again when you have a better sky and a tripod(although you did fine w/o the tripod this time) :)

Keep up the good work with your pictures. I enjoy them.

PM me with any questions or comments.
