I saw this on a news feed within my messages, another devaint had critiqued it and it caught my eye!!
I really like the way the blurred daisies bring the eye towards the focused one to the left. It has a very relaxed feel to it however one can tell that a lot of consideration went into the photograph. The daisies' white contrasts against the dark of the background well and indeed the name 'Fire' suits this piece down to the ground!!
I cannot see anything here to comment negatiely about =] If this was for sale i'd happily buy it...VERY well done!
This hooked me from the get-go. Although the colours are strong and fairly constant throughout, they are bold and striking. This is one of the interesting things of the piece; the content and colours create a mild contrast. We have a picture showing small delicate flowers that often remind us of days spent in the garden on a summers day, but hit with a strong ocre that throws fire into the eyes of the viewer.
It's this contrast I think that is mainly going to determine whether the piece is received well, or poorly, by the viewer. It's a difficult decision determining if it works or not. It can't be denied that it is powerful but I can't help feeling a wave of confusion settle over me as I continue to look at it full size.
In conclusion, possibly not the most original piece out there but it delivers the punch needed to wet our curiosity.
