Critique by *ShadyBlues Sep 14, 2010, 7:51:47 PM
While the image is well orchestrated, studio type pictures of flowers are actually rather terribly common, so the eye becomes used to seeing them, and they become dry to look at after a while. That being said, this is one of the best ones I think I have seen in at least a year, and the colors certainly best some of even the non studio photographs.

The sharpness is a little too much, I know you probably resized it for the web, and so the sharpness of the photo is very visible, but don't use a sharpening tool as a crutch, sharpness doesn't define a photo if the other factors are on par.

This seems to be different coming from you, as I have seen almost every image in your gallery, and this one stands out, it shows you are trying to broaden a little bit more than you already are which is great, but this image isn't necessarily your best, while yes I still do like it.

If you try this again I think you should reduce the blaring sharpness as it can become an eye sore when over done, like anything can.

One last thing, your saturation is some of the best on here, I love color, and sometimes people never grasp the idea of artistic saturation, but you seem to have the point. It is usually under or over saturated, but yours is perfect.
What do you think?
