Greetings from the Critique Club:
Hi Richard :o)
Composition:
I like the idea you have and feel the seeds work well against the white background. There are ,however, a few bits that distract me. Firstly the seed leaving the frame on the left handside, for some reason my eye is pulled in that direction and it doesn't in anyway help the composition. Also the seed in the foreground almost in the middle looks out of place as if a part of it has been cut off.
I am wondering how the shot would look if you had the camera slightly higher and titled down to give more of an over and across the seeds viewpoint, this may have helped to give less of a feeling that the seeds are floating too.
Technicals:
I agree with the comment below that a greater DOF may have helped this image, for me the out of focus seeds in the background are just too much of a blur.
I think you have managed the lighting and whites very well so a 'good job' on your exposure! :o)
Hope this helps.
If you've got any questions about this critique, please feel free to contact me via the PM system.
- Natalya :o)

This is one of those images you toss out in the forums to ask for feedback on now that the challenge is over. Only 2 comments and not much in the way of direction (likes/dislikes, etc...).
FWIW, I didn't vote this challenge - just commented on a handful that caught my attention. ;^) |

| Interesting composition and concept. I think it would be more effective with greater DOF; the out of focus shapes in the foreground are especially distracting. |

| I'm looking at this and trying to come up with something to say. I kind of like it, but I'm not sure. I mean, it's hard to settle in with it. Not sure where the point of focus or interest is. Without seeing other arrangements it's hard to say if another composition may have worked better. Sorry. Nothing over the top positive to say, yet nothing I can mention in a constructive criticism either. :( The exposure and lighting is fine. How about that? :D Good luck in the challenge. |
