Hygrometer

Comment:
Had to look it up to find out what it is ;-)

Technical: Most all images submitted fit the challenge. Exposure composition focus lighting all good.

Personal: My lack of knowledge of how a hygrometer works, and having never seen one before for comparison, means I have absolutely no emotional attachment to this image- it doesn't compel me.

Not that it matters, and someone else might have already pointed it out, but it's actually spelled "anthurium".

Technical: Most all images submitted fit the challenge. Exposure composition focus lighting all pretty good, but I think they could be stronger.

Personal: The DOF is too narrow for me. I'd really like to be able to see all the detail in the veins and the green structure.

Technical: Most all images submitted fit the challenge. Exposure good. Composition a little weak for me. More time spent might have produced more interesting compositions. Focus good. I feel the lighting should be more even and diffused.

Personal: I think this needs some work. Keep practicing, it's worth it!
