Flowerglow

[spellbound]

Took this late last night. It's my daughters lamp on her bedroom wall. Not so sure about the image as a whole myself.

Thoughts?

spellbound,

As a photo, it's sharp, darkly colorful, and has a limited background interest. Positioned this way, it feels as if it's about to leave the frame, by falling or just continuing its move in that down-and-left direction. Moving it up and right might help.

As a subject, it's a product, not a real grabber of attention. It is a good test of your camera's exposure handling. Yeaaa, Canon!

I agree with Jim about the positioning. If it were at the other side of the picture the composition may feel less like the flower is leaving the frame. I think that it's an interesting picture though, if nothing else because it's a somewhat unusual light and the glow looks quite nice.

Yea...handheld.

Shot it in RAW (first time) as I had not adjusted the camera back from when I was playing around with the settings.

spellbound,

I love IKEA! Once I got over the labelling weirdness, I put far too much cash into their till. Product shots can be fun, especially when placed in uncommon circumstance.

Nice lighting effect, should shift it to the right but good composition

Me too! So much so that I work for them!
