  •   Info Cracked orange flower bud Papaver orientale covered with morning dew. The photo was taken in natural light in the early morning. The background is the garden. The white behind the flower bud is the vague flower of a Viburnum grandiflorum. What I like about the picture is the dew on the flower bud, the mild morning light and the atmosphere.

  •   Comment I don't know this camera, but there doesn't seem to be high technical quality. Charles (talk) 20:10, 17 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

  •   Oppose The dew isn't really being taken advantage of, with no special light shining through it. The bokeh balls aren't very pleasing (f/11, giving hexagons with dark centres). I don't really like the tall-thin aspect ratio. I can see the house behind which shows the frame is titled. That might not be an issue if a tilted angle is the artistic choice, but here is just looks like a mistake. As a very minor note (at pixel peeping levels) the whole frame appears to be sharpened fairly strongly, which has just sharpened any noise. Considering most of the image is out of focus (deliberately) then sharpening that is just just wrong. I suggest to use the sharpening mask and/or local adjustment (i.e. no global sharpening but +ve local sharpening on one area, or -ve local sharpening to remove global sharpening from an area). I don't understand Charles's comment: I can't see anything wrong with what the camera did. -- Colin (talk) 07:39, 18 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]
