Really like the colour, light(patterns), composition and the hopeful flower raising it's head to the sun. Well done. In my TT. Good luck.

Though the blinds and vase are straight and parallel, it seems like they are off kilter. The illusion is interesting.

I like the idea, but some elements let it down a bit.

The left hand side is a distraction. Maybe just having the shade, the flower and the shadows. More space around the shadow of the flower would have been beneficial too I think.

I would have liked to see more colour in the flower to make it stand out from the background a bit more. Rather than trying to boost colours in post pro, maybe a bit more light on the flower head during the shoot.

Good luck.

Very interesting.... Nice composition and texture. I do wish the yellow of the flower stood out a little more though. Still good enough for a spot in my faves.

I do think I would have closed or cropped the thing at the right had edge. It's a bit of a distraction.

Blues, but soothing really. I like the many lines. Alot going on but not overwhelming, like quiet contemplation of a change. Very good.

Perhaps these blinds have participated before in the Macro Challenge?!
Well composed, very attractive lighting. Perhaps you could have darkened the left side a little or cropped it out completely.

ah, just beautiful! I also did a 'blinds' picture, but it was nowhere near this one. Light poking in thru blinds has always done something to me. It is definitely.......mood. Well done, I love it.
