Wow, that was worth going out for. Nice to get it in the 'home' series, too.
Selective colour/ neutrals / up the magenta can have a good effect on something like this - or just play around with the sliders. Mind you, we're always just one slip of the mouse away from making the miracle of nature into a gaudy mess :-)

Tell me he's not living in there.
I've no local knowledge to let me into the picture, so it's opaque.
Well put together, though.

Certainly fits well in the theme? theme :)
Funny how ghost-like images can do so much to recall the experience of an outing. This gives mood.

Yeah - macro enough. There's the one-to-one size ratio on the film plane school of macro definition and there's the one-to-one finished print school... I think the vernacular definition would have to somewhere around 'surprisingly close'. Not that yer actual definition is much to do with anything here, but it's a good smack-in-the-eye close-up, so...

Too pretty and simple a face to carry the whole trope, IMO. The texture and linear blur effects etc are good though. Brave and welcome effort (also IMO).

In your abstract world with the non-applicable reasons.
Nice abstract. Simple, but nice.

Revisited

Comment:
I think 'impact' is a cover-all word when 1x screeners use it. This picture has plenty of impact (there's nothing wrong with the colour either :)) but it fall into the sea of cliché and not being 'different enough' for the site. My speculation, of course.

The title supports the story rather than the picture, but hey... it's all good information.

Once Upon a Warm Evening

Great stuff going on here. Might it look less posed if eye contact were avoided?

A different aesthetic. I don't think it works, but there's stuff here with the chaos and the simplicity of the palette that you might get to work another time...
