Hello Sydney:

Daydreamer here!
First of all, you're right, this picture is really big!

But I like the concept you had. The picture is very pretty, I love the angle you used.

My only complaint would be that since a few of the flower petals are blurred, they are blocking the view of the main flower. I'm not sure if you intended that to happen or not.

Overall, not bad.
I would like to see more of your work!

No worries on the size; I've resized it for you.

yay! and thanks daydreamer.. no that wasn't intended, I wish I could do some more shots of them, but sadly they are now out of season.

Hi there Sydney!!!
I really like what I see here right away and the concept is definitely a really unique one with the angle that you used. My complaints are similar to those of daydreamer though. The blurring is rather distracting. But the unique shape and color of the flowers alone makes up for it. Still, it would definitely be really cool to see more of your shots and more of the wonderfully creative camera angles that you could bring.

Ok, first off, this was a very unique angle you took. I like how you can see the stems and a little sky in the background, as well as the little ray of sunshine coming from the one in the top left corner. I probably would not have wanted to take an angel like that, perhaps having one full flower in focus with the others in the back, but yours is ok. I would also like to point out that the flowers in front seem in bad focus. Overall though, good picture :)

Hey there, Sydney! I'm back to review this.

This is a photo I really like. For starting, you approach this at a unique angle which is one of the ground points of photography. A photography student told me that photos aren't based on your camera's ability, but your ability to capture interest... and of course, that's arguable.

Nonetheless, this is good! The color is excellent; your flowers weren't shadowed which says great things about your exposure. I love the vivid colors to this; very spring-ish. The focus is fair as well, but it could have been better if we could see the entire flower straight through the gap.

The only downside to this photo is the washout. The ray of sun light to the left of the photo fuzzes and over exposes that corner, so it looks a bit damaged there.

I like this, though. I'm curious to see more of your work. Keep it up!

Hey sydd

I love how on this photo you have gotten down on the ground and shot upwards, a low angle shot. I just gives, an otherwise boring shot of flowers, a whole new aspect and interest for me. I also like how it's not just a low angle shot of the flower only but that you have all these other flowers in the shot and the sky in the background. It almost makes me feel like a borrower or something and that I am tiny, good job on that.

However I think that the way you framed the shot with all these blurry petals and other flowers kind of ruins the shot for me. I think if you had just had a bit of these blurry petals in just to frame the shot then that would have been ok but these blurry photos intrude into this really nice shot and cover up, what I consider to be, your main subject of the shot, the flower.

The colours are nice though as well and the focus is good. Just be careful that you don't obscure your subject too much when you are trying to frame your subject.

I really like how you think though and the different way you approached this shot and I hope that you post more photos.

hey there, it's pink
This is a really pretty picture. I mean I love the angle here and I love those flowers, they have such beautiful colors. I think if you focused more on a single flower and had the others blurred just slightly it would make this picture a lot better. But that's just my suggestion.
Wonderful picture, keep it up!

Very pretty. You're much better with a camera than I am...

I love your choice of flowers and how it's so close-up. The angle is also extremely unique. However, I think I'd like the nearest petals not to be as blurry. Just my opinion, and you probably can't do much about that right now!

Argh, I didn't find anything else wrong with this pic, so very, very short review. Oh yes! I like how you included the trees in the background, and how some of the flowers' tops can be seen. Like their full profiles. Anyway, great job! Looking forward to seeing more of your work.
