Hello, it seems to me that the photograph is fuzzy, perhaps due to the compression of the image in order to present it on the site. Your exposure is correct, with some points of over-exposure, but that is not crippling. DoF shorter would have allowed the setting in front of a flower to make in particular, and thus the photograph more readable, with a center of percussion interest. At all events, beautiful test and I await your next image. Greetings.

thanks for your comment, you're rigth the compression for the site did not help this picture but this is not the only reason, this shot was made with a compact cam and i could not do exactly what i wanted

I agree with Jon, love how nature leads into the city, looks like a very interesting city! good job!

Very nice landscape/cityscape!! I agree that the Topic placement seems odd, but lovely image anyway. You might consider place this in Skyscapes too.

You know you can suggest a Topic and/or vote on upcoming Topics:

good shot, nice color and light and interesting contrast between the new and old part of the town

Very nice. Like the way you use the trees as foreground and then lead us into the city. Great sky.

awfully

I'm assuming this is IR work or something done in Photoshop? I'm not much of an abstract person but it may appeal to people who like that. You have an interesting subject with the plane in the clear but other wise I don't find this overly appealing. Sorry.

Good effort with your framing of the plane - keep shooting! Keep thinking about what you are trying to convey to the viewer.

Best,
jon

surprising shot, interesting
imo the shot would be better without the plane

this must have been a very hard shot, to be able to capture a fly is quite a feat, congrats! I really like the color of the photo, at first I wasn't quite sure I liked the fuziness of the fly, but I now I think it gives the photo a "motion" feeling that relates well to the viewer because we all know how flies never seem to sit sill...great job!

Lovely color. Great job capturing the fly. I would have like to see the fly a little more clear.

i like the minimalistic look of this shot

IMO the colours are a bit flat, but exept (or despite) that it's a really nice photo. I always am a bit jealous when people can capture a butterfly or an other small animal sitting on a flower. ;)
Good job!

tamara, is your screen calibrate ?
Colors are a bit flat on my laptop, but are nice on my calibrate screen.

Sorry. I think I misunderstood the meaning of 'flat colours'. I meant: there is so much white, the butterfly is brown... I miss some bright colours. But that's just my taste, I like images with bright colours, and if they don't have them, the image must have strong contrasts or something. I made something to show what I mean:

Still, the original is beautiful!

Very beautiful, but the focus is too soft on the butterfly.

Best,
Jon

very beautiful but jon is rigth the focus could be better

Thank you very much smucha

I love the b/w. I have a picture just like this one. beautiful

Thank you Teryn.

beautiful is right. simple yet haunting.

i don't know exactly why but this shot looks really nice for me

Yes, it is May already :)))) Great shot for me and this romantic vibe..... I am going for a walk with my hubby;)

Thanks for the comments.

jvg: You're right with the little bush, I realized it too late, only when I saw it on the computer. But as I remember I wouldn't have any other place to stand, so I couldn't compose it some other way.

That bush can be pretty easily cloned out, I believe.

I agree with everyone else, it is a nice moment but the tree gets in the way. Nice capture though.

good shot, good comp and light

The leaves on the right are disturbing for me, without them the water would be more impressive on the picture.

I would take the frame out of this one. i think it will look nicer without it.

I agree with the above comments, it is a good shot though, beautiful location

Truly a stunning location, a shame about the plant on the right but I suspect your on a cliff and movement was limited. Would love to see a more closeup of the lighthouse with the water.

i don't agree with the comments on the plant ! imo, they are interesting in the shot
good job

Beautifull shoot. Love the color and the water.

beautful! such detail!

Thank you

Nice subject. Why quality is so low?

i love the color and water, nice comp

i like this... very calming!

It's making my eyes blur a little, try focusing more on the stalks in front?

I agree with warreagle, it is a little blurry. I like the idea though. Try from different angles.

Nice idea, but I too think the DOF is distracting. Maybe if the largest out of focus stalk wasn't so centered.

i agree with kalepsiash, very calming shot
