Superbly done!!!!Well planned, captured and put together! The lighting is beautiful! The only change I would make is to have the last flower lit up with a little more intensity because that one symbolizes the final result of this transformation. Either way, this is brilliant and beautiful to look at! #2292842Shane Nestle 1/15/2006 8:33:40 PM
Communicates the theme very well and grabbed my attention.Since you asked for critique/comments... I agree that the last bud could use a little highlighting / amplification. It appears that the lighting varied in all four shots. The middle two look like they are illuminated nearly the same, but the others don't seem to be illuminated as strongly. Could just be a trick of the eye due to the colors and shapes.
I also would suggest dithering the "cut" area of the stems to black so that the sharp lines, which contrast heavily with the delicate curves of the flowers, don't draw your eyes away and remind you that this is a composite of pictures. #2292869

REally beautiful! I love the changing colors. I do agree with shane on the black lines though. It's still a superb shot and you captured it great. #2293131Sakthik . 1/16/2006 1:28:01 AM
Thanks Everyone. I am delighted to see your comments and critiques. The lighting condition must vary, because you cannot maintain the same color temperature from the first to last flower. I reduced the color temperature on the last flower to 4000K. I tried increasing it, but it gives me too much of red detail, which I dont want. I wanted to maintain the green highlight as well. Please keep posting your comments and critiques. It will improve my skills. Cheers.
