| Good choice of subject; nice colors, and the glass-bead-looking things add an extra element of interest. Expoure is spot-on, too. But the light is too harsh. How did you light this? Looks like direct light from a single source. Dunno how much space you have, but if you can bounce the light off of something (a nice big sheet of foam core, for example), or put it through something (a thin sheet of translucent plastic (big plastic bag works)) on a frame, maybe--you get much softer light that tends to flatter floral subjects much better, and definitely avoids the hot spots that are messing with your bloom exposure. As it stands, simply cropping out the left side of the photo (which is adding nothing of interest), maybe going to a square or near-square crop, would (to me anyway) strength this photo a lot. |
