like the subject. I keep wanting to se emore light on the foreground, but the white gives it a wintery look, so maybe more light would change the mood.

I like the contrast of the stark background and the spiky thorns. I think I'd like to see more of the subject in the frame, they're just a little too cut off for a pleasing composition for my taste.

ouch

Very minimal. Ouch!

Cactus on white. You are concentrating on the composition on the photo it seems. The subject is uninteresting.

maybe using a bigger aperature value would make both pricklies stand out, and in focus, interesting though, 5

Nice framing for the challenge

Groovy

Wouldn't want to touch that, I think your image has done its job :-)

Excellent...it would be nice if both pieces of cactus were in focus.

yes, there is something I quite like about this one, composition perhaps :)

These shots seem forced, now - perhaps just a function of seeing so many so quickly. It doesn't ... well, tell me anything ... just doesn't seem apt to the subject; it feels like taking an image and then putting it in an expanse of white(ish). Obviously technically adept stuff; I just can't see it as an organic image.

Nice.

I really like the idea, I think it might have been a little better if both of the cacti (cactuses? hehe) were in focus... nice picture all the same

I like it!!! The more faded cactus gives a nice, unique look to this. Definitely minimal, but very appealing -- and I don't even like cactus. But I like this a lot :)

I dont see any relationship with the negative space. Add a finger or something in the upper right to connect them
04/27/2005 10:43:35 AM
second cacti is distracting...might have been better if both were in focus or used only one
04/27/2005 08:05:26 AM
This is not appealing
