Hi A M,
Greetings From the Critique Club:
I went to your profile to take a look at your other pictures since I haven't done a critique on any of your photos before. I DO believe that this is your best. I also believe that you were jilted BIG TIME! in the points. I never ceases to amaze me how people vote done cliche shots even though they are perfectly done and meets the challenge head on.
Technical:
In my opinion, I don't think your rose could have been done any better. I noticed with your shots in earlier challenges, you mostly had problems with focus. I think you finally got it perfect. Your DOF is great with the focus on the bud of the rose which I think is the prettiest part. You picked up the textures of the rose nicely. The lighting and colors are perfect.
Composition:
What more can I say, but nice. The only thing that I might have changed would be to have had the rose further up to get more of the stem in the picture. You know, you don't want the address sticker to cover any portion of your beautiful pink rose.
Challenge:
You met the challenge. I can definately see this picture on the cover of a magazine. I'm not a professional in the least, but I would think that if an editor would choose this picture for a cover, he/she wouldn't have to do too much to it. You left perfect space for the title and the other things that go on the cover.
Overall:
I really do believe that this should have been in the top 25 at least. Personally, I scored your picture a 9 during the voting phase. I think you deserve a nice pat on the back for a picture well done. I wouldn't let your score get you down.
Keep up the good work and good luck in the next challenge.

| very nice rose macro. Well done would work well for a magazine with the space that is there for the title and the print along the side. |
