From critique club.

This shot is exhibiting superb technique and knowledge of composition. The title is intriguing and fits the challenge. The only thing that leaves me uncomfortable is colors. The flower does not look "yummy" - the green cast spoils it and for the eye of a bee... The bees have a completely different than human colorspace in their vision ;-) they see green as us - grey.

GREAT macro!

Interesting use of the (off-screen) subject and the title!
03/15/2004 11:26:34 PM
Sorry, I just couldn't figure out the relationship to the topic.

Interesting idea, nice macro.

I don't get the feeling of an off screen expectation from this
03/12/2004 04:03:38 PM
I would say that this would go better in the parallel lines competition

beautiful flower shot, but nothing dealing with off-screen expectation

Looks more like baby powder then pollen. Just a bit too much.

Yup, I get this. Lovely close up study. The title of your submission means everything...I can hear it coming....great work.

It's a good macro of a flower, but I can't see the "off-screen expectation".

Congrats on working in a flower shot that atcually meets the theme quite well.

Pretty flower shot. Unfortunately, there is nothing in this shot that tells me the flower is expecting anything. Only the title gives a hint on that.

Nice idea, though that pollen doesn't look very real to me
03/10/2004 07:43:08 AM
Im not sure what to make of this image. Maybe its coz I dont have a clue what the white is (pollen?) : )

Creative interpretation but it takes a while to feel anything happening past the edge of the frame. Nicely composed though with good focus.
