A Comment From The Critique Club
I immediately loved those little backlit hairs on the plant, they are beautiful. The composition is nice, also, letting the eye wander nicely up and to the left of the plant and therefore leading the viewer through much of the photo. The plant is nicely complemented by the 'mottled' background. It is sufficiently out of focus to enhance, rather than distract, but it does add texture and interest to a photo that would've been plain without it.
The plant is nice and crisply in focus, however, the hairs are blown out in several places. It's nothing major that really detracts from the image, but bracketing your shot with higher and lower exposures could've gotten you one that was a little less overexposed without being too dark. I'd have to see it to be sure, backlit objects are hard to photograph and you did do a good job. There are no obvious signs of post-processing, so, whatever you did, you did well.
The photo easily meets the challenge, the 7 can be spotted immediately.
I really like simplistic nature images like this, and you should be proud to have spotted it ... to often we just walk past these things unseeing. Keep up the good work :)
Please let me know if you have any questions or comments about this review.
