CRITIQUE CLUB CRITIQUE
by karmat
COMPOSITION
I really like how you have included only part of the fruit and in the upper right hand corner. Also, the sea of blue works as sortof a negative space context to draw attention to the fruit.
TECHNIQUE
The colors you have used here are fantastic. I love the silky smooth look of the blue. Also, the capture of the bubbles on the fruit are a nice touch. My only criticism would be that the shadow under the fruit is a little noisy. I'm not sure how you could fix that without distorting the rest of the picture, but for non-dpc stuff, I would try to smooth that out. The yellow may be just a touch too light. Though I can see it fairly plainly on my screen, others may not, especially if it is not calibrated correctly or something.
OVERALL EFFECT
The satiny look of the blue gives this an elegant dreamy look. For some reason, it makes me think of a giant lemon relaxing in a swimming pool on a hot summer day.
Nice work, and good luck in future challenges. |

| Very nice shot. I like the composition and the idea. The bubbles came out pretty in contrast to the shadow. The colors or something about it seem too drab. Nice job. 6 |

| Not really sure I get the gist of this one. Personally not enough of anything for me. Maybe a little more lemon, and less background. Just not sure about it. |

| Wow, wonderful! I love it. You somehow got that lemon to hover over your background. The crop is excellent and the background itself fits in perfectly. You have to be proud of this one. |

| What an interesting shot! The water gives the left side of the shot an almost dreamy look, and the seltzer bubbles on the rind of the lemon make the pic pop. |

| Interesting shot. I would have liked the lemon to be more of a brighter yellow. Great framing and lighting. Good luck. |
