I like the simplicity of your composition. The backlighting works very well on the stem below the back fence and lets the flower seem to be in almost full silhouette. I wish the flower were in slightly sharper focus though (but the stem's details are wonderful).
A lovely simple composition but I also agree that the colour on the flower is not as deep as it could be to give it full impact. This is an interesting theme and a great start to your month! Well done!
I think it looks a bit lonely too... It's sort of half way between a silhouette and not, and I think it needs to be more one way or the other - either a little bit more colour, or a little bit less.. :) But it's a lovely shot nonetheless! I am looking forward to how else you can interpret your theme!

ReplyDeleteI agree with buff, I think a little fill flash would have done wonders on this!
ReplyDeleteThe plant looks huge from your viewpoint.
ReplyDeleteI think that the simplicity of the photo makes it so good.

Interesting theme! I like the white sky and your use of DOF.

The simplicity is really good but I'd like just a little bit more color. I look forward to what comes next.
ReplyDeleteSimple and pretty :) I especially like the bokeh dots on the lower right corner.
