    Flowers, oh so pretty.

    I know I posted one of these already, I couldn't wait until I scanned them all.
    Feedback is greatly appreciated!

    Re: Flowers, oh so pretty.

    Very good photos! I really like two and three, with two being the best in my opinion. I like the how you composed the picture on the second one. Could you by any chance post the second picture without the color cast to see what it originally looks like (just curious). I like how you try to capture the different perspective in the third shot, but it's not doing it for me.

    Re: Flowers, oh so pretty.

    The first (bottom) photo is wonderful. I love the way that you have angled the photo so that the majority of the image is the reflection...very creative. I'm not sure if you could have changed this, but the out of focus object in the top right (I believe it is a flower) is slightly distracting for me...in part I think it is because I am trying to figure out what it is (my brain is drawn to it).

    However I think the rest of the photo is great. Even though it is a reflection it's in focus, you can see texture in the vase and I find the lighting intriguing.

    Well done!
