[Godfu]

Hi everyone,

I would like to know your opinion about this picture. Don't you think it is too soft, or too yellow, or even too "kitsch"?
Thanks in advance for your comments...

Godfu,

Your photo has a painting-like quality. It is also the type of image that provokes thought and interpretation. Art is subjective so it is difficult to judge the image without understanding the statement beyond minimalism.

A part of me wants to know more about it...Then I think, well, it's okay not knowing.

I like it. Very thought provoking as mentioned. I would maybe lower the brightness level a little on the right hand side.

thanks Geotography, I understand what you mean... In fact, with this "kind of absract picture" I would like to transcript a smooth and warm atmosphere (my abstract pictures are usually in B&W)... I'm just wondering if it achieves this goal... I'm wondering if the colors and the softness aren't a bit "too much"...

And thanks Alsto... I think you're right, it's a bit burned at right top corner...

I don't think so Godfu.

i like soft, i like yellow, and i definitely like kitch....although, something about the composition doesn't sit right with me....maybe it's the even number of doohickeys......possibly it's how they lign up against the left of the frame....it just feels a little awkward to my eye...

so, what on earth is this?

thanks for sharing

I think you're right (you have a great eye Peeperita ;-)), they're a bit too concentrate on the bottom left corner...

It's "stamen" (says my on-line translator :D) from a tulip...

thanks a lot for the comment...
