    Very nice composition. The tilt works well. Depth of field is too narrow (you need a smaller f-stop or a wider lens).

    Re: Once Upon a Life

    Welcome.

    Very nice. I like the warm tone of the clouds and the rotated framing of the picture. Perhaps crop a bit out of the top as well. maybe chop the head off of the tall stem on the right: just have it as a stem that extends all the way to the top of the picture. That would also cut a portion of the out of focus flower in the middle out as well, while leaving enough to be suggestive.

    I.

    I like your stylish image - tilt, tone, tendrils and all.

    Re: Once Upon a Life

    That is a styling photo all right although I tend to agree with Don that there is not enough depth of field.

    Normally I am not that big of a fan of tilted images but I agree with everyone else that it works here.

    What else you got?
    No, I DON'T need that.
