I like this alot the title and image,but what is the little brown thing in the top left corner...would the image still work with that cropped out?

Very artistic image, you have a good eyes......
may be you could remove the "thing" (don't see waht it is!) on the top left corner Idea

thank you.

the "thing" is a gingerbread man dog toy. crop? i don't know ... Shocked

You could clone it out -- this image has a very strong graphical design to it, yet without becoming abstract: you still feel all the detail of reality. I like that orange light in the shadow.

A very striking image, well spotted. As an experiment I would try cropping it to put the bottle in the "thirds" position, with the top point of the light triangle just inside the frame edge. I don't know if this would improve the image, but it is worth a try.

no crop, just simply clone it, like this:


if you don't like it, I will remove it of course....

This has a lot of very nice things going for it ! The leading lines (shadows) Triangles ( cone of light and shadow regions) contrast of the bright color to the rest of the frame. Like Jussi said , It's graphic without being abstract !

thanks, guys. the cloned version looks good. i think i'll do that to a copy ...

Nice light and idea, still it doesn't make the trick for me, i prefer much more your b&w images.


Reply

thank you, hexi. i understand. i don't know if i will ever "get" color ...

for fun, here is a BW version:

I like it better in color. The orange spot draws attention and gives "movement", adding depth to the composition, IMHO.

thank you, Aa ...

this image has strong lines, I like the colors on the bottle but somehow I don't like the red hue on the floor ( maybe just my monitor? ) anyway that made me curious to play with it, fish I hope you don't mind

not at all kuaan. and thank you.
i don't see any red in the floor in my color copy, but your floor's lighter hue may be closer to real than what auto color in photo shop did for me. i am a bit red/green color blind ...

Beautiful lead-in on the title, and like others have said, it's a nice graphical image without being over the top.
Fine work!
