wheel barrel in the garden

Comment by Everyday Renee:
Since the wheelbarrow is your main subject due to the natural strong color, I think it should be more in focus. Otherwise, you have a great composition here.

Good concept. Focused well. These pen heads are very difficult - I tried them once and gave up. I think a consistent background and floor is better in this situation - or put the background way, way back so that it is not in focus and not lighted. The reds seem off also - might want to check the color balance. Hope I have not offended you with the suggestions.

My Mom has a pin cushon just like that........2 points just for nostalgia. It's sharp, colorful, well lit and the deadcenter composition even works well here.

I like it.. Little bit barren.. the white on the pinheads are a little too bright for my taste

You should have made a circle with the pins, or atleast looked at what that would have looked like.

Hey....good idea. The light is way too harsh. Hard to control at times. I do think your idea is excellent and I like the composition.

cute! the overexposure steals texture away, but the resulting contrast shadows give attention to the pin ends. interesting dillemma. The shadow on the right is too dark for my taste. it's a visual void. makes the picture look off centered when it actually isn't. 4

the lighting washes out the colors. I think adding some constrast to darken the background would have allowed the pincushin to stand out more. perhaps having some pins sticking halfway out would add more interest also. :o)
