So, the #1 rule of photography is simplicity. Make your image as simple as it needs to be, but none simpler.

You have to think of shot as though you were painting it by hand... like, you are "adding" each element of the composition. Here, there is not real reason to "add" that hose to the left, or that red thing to the right. They are just distractions and do nothing for the photograph. Every element of the composition has to add to the photo, otherwise it detracts from it. That selective-ness and attention to detail is what sets a photographer's photograph apart from a regular guy's snapshot. You received a low score on this image because it looks too much like a snapshot, doesn't look like enough thought was put into it.

Having said all that, I like the sharp focus and I like the depth of field effects... there are some interesting things about the shot, but ultimately, a 'snap-shot-ish' shot of some rather unremarkable flowers will not hold the visual interest of many people.

I don't mean to sound harsh here, it's just that I saw from your posting in a thread that people were not giving you enough feedback on your shots, so I thought I would go ahead and give you an honest assessment of what I thought about your first entry.


Thank you very much!!!!!!

i like the idea but maybe using different coins or actually setting the coins in motion with a slight blur would have given the image more
