Nice picture for an ad. Plenty of space for copy at the top and middle. But, don't like the large blurred flower in the forground.

I like the colors. I'm not sure if I like the post-processing on the back field of the flowers, maybe a tad overdone for my personal tastes. Good lighting though.

I like the idea, I just would have liked to see the subject sunflower to be sharper and maybe some processing to make it stand out more (maybe add some contrast)

too much yellow, not enough contrast in IMO. But the idea of the shot is good.

Nice contro; on the DOF.

Lovely, my only comments are the blured flower in the front right hand side is quite distracting and even though the top edge of the field looks straight the house does not.

Not quite in focus and a little too bright for my taste.

very nice but perhaps the house is a bit too much OOF - 8

Pretty shot, cool bokeh. WOuld have liked to maybe have seen the shadows pimped out a bit on the up front flowers but a very nice shot none the less.

A real lovely shot. I love your shallow DOF witht he white house in the back. Nice job capturing the sun light

REALLY great dof. The composition is nice. I love that the horizon is slightly tilted. A nice break from the "norm".

Great photo, nice DOF. Awesome colors.

Been back to look at your photo a few times, I like what you did. Visually I can't figure out why that house looks like it is slanted to the right. Other than that I really enjoy this

I like the selective focus on the single flower but the intense blur of the background is a bit heavy for me.

Wonderful sunflowers. The only negative is the brightness of the white building. If this were lessened, the subject sunflower would even be more dominant.

Very cool DOF. I do wish you had cropped the house out, though. It looks tilted and really distracts from the rest of the photo. Just that one lone sunflower in focus in a field of sunflowers would be more dramatic without anything else distracting from it. I'd also crop out the partial out of focus sunflower in front.

The DOF is just wonderful, as are the colors. If the one OOF sunflower weren't in the foreground, this would earn top marks, but still very well done. 8.

A little too overpowering for me. My eye was drawn to the out of focus house in the background.
10/01/2007 10:39:18 AM
Great depth of field! The one in focus really stands out! This is how flower images should be! 8

Nice composition and DOF, but just not sharp enough unfortunately.

A little better focus on the subject would have made this shot even more brilliant.
