Subtle Changes: Day to Night

Comment by WeJay:
Brilliant concept!

I needed an indication to interpret the image though. I also assume that the right side (of the photo) indicates day make up
and left the night one.

Had I not looked at the details provided by you, I might have
interpreted the portrait part as day and bright, and the negative space and night and black.

:-), But I must congratulate you on thinking and working this out! Wonderful SP too!

Interesting composition... I like the purple flowers, but would have preferred if the focus were on the one with the butterfly on it.

I like the composition and that butterfly (bug) in the background. It would nice if this wasn't so "busy", it's a bit hard to keep focused just on the flowers.

Nice thistle. Not sure the right half of the shot buys you anything.

This image seems too busy for my tastes. Maybe having the background grasses further out of focus would have helped. I like the composition with the two flowering thistles working against each other. One is near, one far. Each is in it's own corner.

Great color. Probably would have gone for more depth-of-field or a whole lot less.
