Rulier Unruly

Gallery: FloraPosted January 27, 201352 views13 comments

I can't believe these things are still blooming. I thought I might as well take a final shot before they wilt! They look a little bit more orderly here. Am curious how anyone thinks it compares with the last one (obviously it is darker!): Unruly Blooms

Comments, criticisms welcome.

This is a stack of 12 shot in a hallway with light from a small window through a diffuser and a black cloth background.

Eirnini ...I actually wanted to do something like this with my image today... tried underexposing. To be honest , this is the kind of image that created to mood and the soothing effect. Have to look at this from hanging it on the wall. Like the scatter here,, more so an organized scatter...beautifully done

I like the way you have the flowers coming out from the dark shadows, so to speak, Eirini. I prefer Unruly, but this is good as well. I think I'd like to see a bit more light and color on the pretty flowers in this version.

Eirini: This one really works well for me. I like how the blooms fill the frame and I especially like your lighting. 2 thumbs up! >=))>

Lovely photo. You don't share how you shot the image. I've done something like this. Shooting downstairs, black cloth background, lights off, except for a single light source (Goose neck lamp) on the floral arrangement. Very nice job!

I like this one better. It is nicely balanced, and I like how the blooms just seem to spring up out of the darkness. Maybe it could use tiny bit of brightening, but I like the mood in this.

Nice job, I like the white flowers against the black background. I think it works really well.

I like the organization and the depth of this. I assume this was a stack?

This is exceptional! I hadn't seen "unruly" before - it's even better.
LOVE the dark mood and creamy blooms.
Just excellent!!

I missed the first ones so had to go back and find it, which are remarkable BTW. This one is equally pleasing to me as they appear to be suspended, like shooting stars. Excellent work.

I really like how these flowers are scattered throughout the frame and how they point in so many different directions. I do wish this were brighter.

Eirini:

Love the mood here. Very good as it is but won't mind a touch more light to bring out the white.

Beautiful. I, too, would like a touch of light.

Hi Eirini
