Mangiaby bledfordComment: Fantastic clarity and great colors. A warmer light would have made this even more attractive. |

Allegro cantabileby LouisonComment: Thanks so much.
I've had the same problem with all photos I've submitted lately. There is always someone who says that it was underestimated. I must have a bad karma in this place! :o)

I second your disappointment. I gave this image a 7 during voting, and I think it should have scored much higher. The image definitely does meet the challenge - I thought it was obvious that the reason the flowers appear to be shining is because the light source is behind them... However, I would imagine that the low marks are indeed dnmc's - while it should be obvious that the photo does meet the challenge, it's not as obvious as the rest of them (you can actually see the light source at the back in most photos). Which is just to say that voters are silly and should be ignored in this case, as their only objection seems to be that they weren't sufficiently hit on the head with the challenge theme.
As for the image itself - I think it's very pretty. The DOF works well, the flowers are shining beautifully, all the colours are pretty and complementary. The crop is just right, and the rule of thirds is being used perfectly - the leaf on the top right nicely leads the viewer's gaze towards the subject of the photo. Not sure about the focus - it might have been nice if the front flower was also in focus, but this seems to work well too.
I like the title - it does look like the flowers are raising up their arms in joy and singing happily :)
Well done, lovely photo. And don't worry about the score - there are times when you shouldn't take such things too seriously.

Allegro cantabileby LouisonComment: I'm really disappointed with this result. This is a true backlit image, the sun was at about 11 o'clock in front of me ( and I find it quite beautiful). |
