The reason why the sunsets in the evening is because it wants to see the sunrise in the morning. I rise in the morning because I want to see them both. RvdB
I have learned to always enlarge anything of Bruce's to full screne; else I will be missing 2/3rds of the pic! I love the "textures" and intricacy of the details here.
Oh Bruce, this creation of yours makes me think again of precious silk fabric. Like the Saris they wear in India. I really am enjoying the soft romantic colours you are using lately. This is so beautiful. V
This is stunning Bruce. I often say I'm not a fractal person so when I comment on one, you can bet it's a winner. Ten son, earned every point of it. Placement of the floral designs with the streamers, textures, lines, and the colors used make this a real work of art, not just cg fun. Absolutely marvelous work. Thanks for sharing. anne =D
Critiquing art of any kind is utterly subjective. When I vote on your images, I look at several things. First, my initial gut reaction. Then, is it straight (if it should be); is the color correct or if intentionally saturated or desaturated, was it done properly and does it enhance the image; composition - if you intended a bulls-eye, unless it's an outstanding image that is really served by centering the subject, it'll get dinged; is the horizon dead center - again, unless there's an obvious reason that makes it a better photo, no points; is the subject interesting and uncluttered; is the image sharp; is the depth of field right for this composition, is there a catchlight in the creature's eye; would I hang this on my wall; is it an image I'd be proud to display; is it artistic or just a snapshot; does it move me; is there a message conveyed; is it documentary in nature and if so, does it tell the story in such a way it makes me want more. When I critique a photo in your gallery, I'm only suggesting what my subjective nature prefers. No need to defend your position if you like your image the way it is. If you give me constructive criticism on my pieces, I guarantee you I will take them to heart. I love to improve! Bring it on Caedians! Love, anne =D
