I took this picture on a nice day in June. I was in the yard just taking pictures of different things. I thought these flowers would be cool to photograph. I like this one; I chose not to crop it or anything. Because, I was trying to get the flowers to be symmetrical to each other, that’s why the flowers are in the center.

I really like the way that you were focus on the flowers. I also like how it hang from a tree and are form that way. I never saw flowers like this before. But I think that your lighting could have been a little brighter then it would actually make the photo livelier. But other then that it a good picture.
I see the symmetry you are going for in this and it was a cool idea, but I think maybe it would have been a little stronger had you zoomed in on the flowers a little and increased the depth of field with the background to make them stand out. I like this because it is very clear and crisp and the shadows and detail on the flowers gives it good texture. I think the lighting is just a little harsh for the kind of soft message that flowers are supposed to represent. To cut down on that kind of glare maybe try taking pictures at dusk or in the morning when there is less light. If you can't shoot at these times take some pictures of the flowers that are in the shade because the light will be less harsh there.
This picture is really cool, i like the background being dull it brings out the subject a lot. the reflection in the water is almost perfect which is awesome.

This is a great idea for a shot. I like how the flowers are in focus and the background is blurred. It makes the subject of the image clear. I also like the fact that the background is mostly dark, whereas the flowers are very bright, adding contrast to the image. However, I would have zoomed in on the flowers more to keep the background from becoming overwhelming. I also would have taken the shot at a slightly different angle, so that the house and porch wouldn't be visible in the image.

Cool picture. i like how there is symmetry between the two flowers. I like how the background is blurred with the other flowers. To me, the background looks a little dull but not as much as I thought, but it brings out the subject. If you did zoom in just a little bit more, it would increase your depth of field and it would bring out the texture of the flowers, leaves, and branches. Other than that, it's a great shot. : ) I hope my comments have been helpful to you.
