Great colors author...well done!

Nice colors. Might have been nice to have a little fill lighting to get rid of that shadow altogether

Underexposed. But still beautiful.

purposely underexposed

For what reason? The colors would pop with a better exposure. Right now the bottom right corner is the brightest, thus it pull my eyes from the vase and flowers.

with a slight increase in the exposure, the orange and the yellow flowers burnt up.have tried al the white balances.found this the best.
i could hav arranged it better if i had lighting, but that tungsten light in the only light in the room.
u think shooting at another time of th day should help?the setup doesnt have a window nearby but.

Does your camera have a setting for shooting under tungsten light? Nice composition but the lighting is letting it down.

SohCahToa, i know you are trying to help the author but i do not agree with what you have done.

I think it's fine that sohcahtoa did that, but you should have sent them in a private message and not posted so everyone could see, and compare, to the actual entry

Sorry I am new to the group. Did not know that I was not suppose to do that.
Message deleted.

i do like the 1st photoshop picture that u did.altho u must hav noticed that the yellow burns out...

Amazing shot author...love the feel on this one...best of luck

My not be the best exposure but it is very artistic looking.

Nice shot!

Interesting set up, but the giraffe seems a little out of place. But, the flowers' colors correspond with the colors in the painting well. You could use the painting as a background with the flowers in front, and crop closely in on the painting. *shrug* might be interesting

very busy, lovely colours, but the flowers look past it's best.

interesting shot author...gl

I like the set up here = )

Interesting

Mmmmm, is "interesting" good or bad?? I'll take either!

very very cool shot author...great colors of the flowers...best of luck

this is the smallest vase in my house.the roses are artificial and the entire thing is the size of my index finger only.
ps:i have a real small index finger

Could improve with a better focus.

very very cool work author...GL

I really like the feel to this

Now this is gorgeous. Some beautiful textures & colors contrasting harmonically.
