Very pretty photo, I love the way you used the focus - awesome effect. I see others have commented that another "stepstone" would be nice further along in the picture and I quite agree; it would provide more depth. Still a very fine piece of art you have there, though (and I rarely like photography enough to comment/fav )

Wow! Wonderful concept, I love it! The composition is perfect and the black background really fits. the flowers look like they are floating and you really need to reach that other flower or else you will fall.
Fantastic work!

I think it might have been a bit better if the whole of the first (blurred) daisy was in the pic but otherwise this is awesome man

wow, very pretty photograph once again. I love the foucus you have on the flowers and the so very black background really makes the flowers stand out from the picture, it really chaptures my eye. Great idea to remove the flower stem, it brings a magical feeling to the picture, like floating stepstone just like you named it.
Great work!

zunder [2005-07-01 13:50:29 +0000 UTC]

wonderfull work...
choosen the right point of focus. perfect work also with darking down the background. that gives the special note to this picture, bringing the flower to fly...

more light? Oh no!

I think it's beautiful. I believe *LeTatou might need a new monitor because he said the same thing about one of my photos that no one else said needed more light. He complains of darkness on photos that don't seem to be overly dark. The lighting is perfect and mysterious and I love the concept. The little drop is a detail that really tops the whole piece off well. Great job dear.

Great shot :I like your focus and dept of field, but I would have liked to see another blurred 'stepstone' above it to fill out the black space; or at least cut it off. But then again regarding the title, it's 'One step at a time', And of course you can't see the next path before you've been on the previous. I like the idea which you sure had in mind when shot/edited this.

Great job.

I personally don't see why it needs more light. It looks fine the way it is. Why must all photography be the same to most people? Good on your for being different.

I personally enjoy the darkness of this shot. It was to be the first thing I commented about, because (one) it's so stark and (two) well, it looks good with that amount of darkness to it. It makes it mysterious and interesting, not only does it that, but it makes it unique. It's just lovely. I'm undecided on the flower in the front. I can't decide on whether it's a distraction or a compliment.

The flower in the background, the subjected flower, is lovely. It's full of character because the petal's aren't perfect like you see in so many flower shots, which makes me look at them and wonder if they're arranged that way (not yours, others). It looks like it's floating though so it's kind of reminding me of a UFO. Hah.

The focus is quite lovely too. It's not overly sharp, which is good because it gives it that nice softness. It's also non restrictive as to what your attention is going to be drawn to, although personally, my attention was first drawn to the water droplet sitting right on the top of that petal. It looks interesting.

I like it. I want to see more from you

Yes, I did edit it a bit. It was shot outside, I just toned the background down.

Thanks for your comment!
