Sorry Sher, I scored this a five. I didn't get the 'waiting', therefore was searching for the main element and because I couldn't find it I didn't like the composition.
Now that I come back to look at how you did in the latest challenges I see a spider and its web. Now I wonder if the photo is about the spider or about the seed. Is the seed waiting to fall (or is the photographer waiting for it to fall) or is the spider waiting for a prey?
In any case I'd think I'd like it more when you had used more of the frame. When I draw a diagonal from the topleft to bottomright there is very little in the left side of that. Tilting the camera a bit up and slightly to the right might have worked. But perhaps the background would suck that way.
The exposure, B&W tones are great! Did you use the R25 filter for this one? |

Eight 1s???! No way. This is a very solid black and white image that manages to convay a sense of waiting to anyone who's ever waited for the last seed on a dandilion to fall. The minor distraction for me appears to be cobwebs? They don't add to the image, and the lines they create take my eyes away from the image focal point. Also, one of the background twigs/flowers is still too strong even with the shallow DOF. That was the only two things that kept this from being a 9. 8 |

I like this- the lighting, the contrasts and the DOF are all very nice. The subject is interesting as well. |
