A Different Colorby
shadowdoc31Comment by snaffles: Greetings from the Criticque Club!
Initial impression: Very colourful eye-candy macro, lots of fun to look at.
Technical: Very good lighting, razor-sharp focus where it's needed, composition is good but not outstanding, the askew pencil adds interest. The amount of pp seems to be just right for this shot.
Artistic: I'd like to see some variation in the height of the crayons to add interest, especially as there is a nice pattern with the lettering on the out-of-focus crayons. The tops of the crayons and pencil are all pristine, which is fine, but create an almost stiflyingly flat horizon.
Just an aside from someone who worked in Advertising for several years...I would be very cautious in trying to re-create any ad unless your version blows the original out of the water!
Overall, good work, you have the technical basics in place, I'd like to see a little more adventurousness.
If you have any questions please feel free to PM me.
