| A truly magnificent shot -- I anticipate that this will do very well this week. Great job capturing such emotion in an otherwise emotionless set of objects. |

| Very nice. Simple, yet powerful. I think using the rule of thirds and zooming out and putting the flower to the lower right corner would make this shot even better. |

| Very cool shot. One of my best this week. Love the simple almost B&W color scheme with just a hint of green on the rocks and the bright splash or yellow dandelions. The one thing that I think might be improved toward my own personal taste would be the composition. Since I don't know what the area was like, this may be unusabl criticism, but I think I would have done at least 1 of 2 things. First shifted the camera to the left so that the big dandelion was much closer to the right edge of the frame. Because of the shapes of the stems and whatnot, that would let the eye flow down and around and through the picture. As it now stands, my eye kind of "ignores" the right half of the image. Second, I wonder what this would have looked like with just the rocks and no water as a background. Nevertheless, great work. |

| Great contrast of color - really makes the flowers pop! Good composition. Flowers seem slightly blurry, and they should be totally in focus, the rest is optional. |

Great photo. The contrast of the yellow flower in the gray looking environment is fantastic.
Maybe the composition would be even stronger if the flower would be positioned a little more to the left. It just looks like there's a little too much empty space on the left now. But that's just a minor issue and a matter of personal taste.

| In most of these challenges since I have been a member at DPC, one photos float to the top as my overall favorites for the challenge. Two have done that this week and yours is one of them. This is a truly amazing image. The yellow blossoms on these flowers jump out of the flat background and say 'good morning' to me :) the depth of field is fantastic... i will stop here and give this photo a 10 - jmsetzler |

| Simply beautiful. If this was set up, you did a wonderful job. If you just found it, good eye! I love the sharpness of the yellow against the drabness of the grays, and the blur in the background creates good depth. Nothing negative. karmat |

| Great job showing isolation in this shot with the DOF. The yellow is a good contrast against the darker background. The framing I think could be a little better, but I'm not sure what I would suggest. One of my top 5 this week. |

| Beautiful. Now go look in the forums about Rule of Thirds. Because its bending to the left I would put this on the right 3rd mark so that its bending into the picture. |

| the splash of colour works well with everything else being so monochromatic. Might like it more from a different angle, showing the flowers with the rocks behind, rather than the water ? |

ODE TO SOME YELLOW FLOWERS: Rolling its blues against another blue, the sea, and against the sky some yellow flowers. October is on its way. And although the sea may well be important, with its unfolding myths, its purpose and its risings, when the gold of a single yellow plant explodes in the sand your eyes are bound to the soil. They flee the wide sea and its heavings.
We are dust and to dust return. In the end we're neither air, nor fire, nor water, just dirt, neither more nor less, just dirt, and maybe some yellow flowers.

| i like this photo. i know it's not, but with the rocks it almost looks like you desaturated everything except the flowers. also like the DOF. wish the flowers were just a tad more in the lower left corner to follow the rule of third. now, they are just not quite centered and not quite ROT. -- gr8photos (7) |

| Well done. I like it a lot...probably because it reminds me of someplace that has a personal meaning to me. But this is well composed. The yellow really stands out well. And I like how the rocks have that slight mossy seaweedy greenish tinge to them :-) |

| I assume the flower is suppose to be the subject here, if so it is out of focus. Looks like you focused on the rock directly in front of it... it appears to be the sharpest object in the image. |

| I love that the flower is the only color. This would make a GREAT texture photo this coming week as well. The softness of the flower and water against the stone. Nice job ! = 9 Shiiizzzam |

| Finally, a flower shot that is different, dosn't fill the frame with flower reproductive organs, refreshing breathing space. I like the contrast between the yellow flower and the grey/black suroundings. The best flower shot I have seen so far. One of my top ten. |
|
|
|
07/15/2002 02:39:00 PM |
| Great depth of field, but I think this would have been better if the background was completely filled with the dark rocks and not broken up with the water (if that is what it is). It just seems distracting. Still, a great shot and a fantastic idea. |

| Good job! You could have used more of the 150k limit, but the composition looks good to me, and I like how the yellow is pretty much the only color in the image. Gives a feeling of solitude. |
