Thumb-up Thumb-up    from roxxie2013/Roxxie (842) Send mail to this user on May 23, 2012 7:57:27 PM CDT (3) Early critique

Oh, is it season yet? time to go to the fields, I guess. This is nice work, Maria, but I'd suggestthe same as previous commenter - now that you've already cropped the flower, you sholud also crop out that blacks from the bottom. Then take care to bringback the square cut, it works actually. And last but not least, bring out some more contrast (or better stll: add the presence and vividness) in order to push yellows out the grayish tone which exists here. Your pic will be more beautiful once yellow jumps forward. But beware: it is easy to exxagerate such steps, so easy approach might be advised.

Hi Maria, Its a nice image but with a bit of softness, I would like isolating the flower on black background or on blurred leaves of original image. My best regards!!!

It's good to see that you're writing critiques now. If you'll make them 15 words long or more you'll start to accumulate points for posting more works. Right now they're too short and are 'non-conforming". They just need to be a bit longer. Keep it up though :-)
