Jon, thanks for your all comments. I agree with you, it's too centered, this because i had to crop on the left. I didn't notice the palm tree and your right.

I really like the composition, the converging lines are great, and the placement of the lights as well!
However, the applied filter is not my cup of tea. It might look better in B&W, but I'm still not sure I would understand it as a choice.

yes i know this filter is very "special" and i choose it only to try, usually i don't like using filters

It is a very interesting photo. I agree though that the filter may be a little too harsh for my taste.

I like the idea of this photo. The background works very well with the texture captured of the flowers (excellent exposure, too). I do, however, find the very sharply focused leaves in the top of frame a little distracting, particularly when so much of the flowers are a little soft. That said, it is still a striking shot.

Good shot - powerful impact - great light - well done!
Best,
Jon

I like this lamp as a subject. I think it has genuine interest with the textures on the shade. I probably would've used a tripod and slowed the shutter speed way down. Not so far down that the light blows out the details but enough to where there's more impact and still good detail.
photoaholic (Geoffrey Reynertz) said 10 months ago:
in fact light conditions were difficult, this lamp was very powerful and i tried different speed and this shot appears to be better than the other ones perhaps a little bit too dark but it was what i wanted to do
Nice framing - but a little bit static, I think - slightly too centered. The focus is soft as well and it's a little underexposed. I don't like that you have cropped the palm tree on the right. Please note, I have given you props on several of your photographs - you have done lots of very fine work. Don't take my critique as a personal attack - just being honest.
Best,
Jon
