I plan to steal this idea (not for DPC though!) and probably with a different technique, although I may try to follow your's 'cause I've never tried it like that. Great idea, execution! |

Here's one I missed. I really should have voted on all the Centered entries. I keep discovering new ones.
This is really FAB-ulous. It would be incredible blown up really large. Love the square format. Love the guady, glitzy rainbow colors. Why be too-too precious about a flower? Need I mention the great lighting and sharp focus?
Super! Sorry I missed voting on it.

Critique Club:
Nice to see you take a different approach to a standard rose shot. I think that for DPC this image may be more than the average voter can appreciate. For me, I like the gradient you've used. I do think that if the overall exposure of the rose had been better, you'd have achieved an even better result. You can see in the highlight areas of the petals that you have large 'flat' areas of color. These areas would prolly be overexposed areas that didn't take your color treatment well. The focus may be somewhat soft as well. Not sure if that was your intent, but it keeps the image from having a professional polish.
Overall I think this was a nice change of pace. A few tweaks and you'd have a very interesting print to hang on your wall.

Wonderful. Was this achieved in PS, as the colours are those of a rainbow from the inside out? I must try this on a centred rose. |

Although creative, the "technicolor effect" applied to the rose just doesn't do it for me. I do, however, appreciate the effort you must have gone through to get the desired effect if in fact you had to do all this yourself. I will give you extra brownie points based on that assumption. |

Don't like this I fear. Quite apart from the over-the-top colouring (obfiously, only my opinion), it seems slightly over-exposed (details blowing out in the more saturated areas), and the direct light isn't helping communicate the softness of the flower - which would make a real contrast with the bizarre tones. 4 |

This is one of my top 4. I am curious to see how the rest of DPC repsonds to the colorization. I think it's done beautifully and the colors blend softly. |
