The Torch

[Harold Davis]

i think the only thing i did to this one is to change the bg color. it was blown out white. the wife suggested this color.

D300, Sigma 150, f/10, 1/320s, 0EV, ISO 1000 (oh yeah, i prolly ran some NR on this thing too)

thanks for looking. comments and critiques much appreciated.

Sweet and great idea on the bg Does have a special feel !!! You cleaned up with that flower !!!!

[Gus Cobos]

I like it as presented Doctor...nice sharp details and superb color rendition...I like the bottom angle of capture...the background makes your lady stand out in all of her glory...good show...:cool:

Really like this, Harold! Very simple, effective comp and love the colors. I see a little red-orange on the edges of the stem that I would clean up. Other than that, well done!

The image does have a lovely simplicity - clean, sharp. Agree about the orange around the stem - it seems to distract. I think I liked this as a vertical image better.
Cheers

Harold...i too think a vertical cropping would help the image. I like the simplicity but feel a different color background...something darker might be worth trying. Just an idea!

Like your angle of capture Harold, and the colours and framing. Just not too sure about the BG. Just a matter of personal taste!
