Critiquing Yosef

Balance
by Yosef

         In this photo, Yosef portrays two flowers next to each other that give off a feeling of balance in the image. The bright color of the flowers attract all the attention at first glance and the surrounding green ice plant really make the flowers pop. The bright yellow flower makes me feel happy and somewhat excited because it causes my mind to think of summer time. The flower on the right is somewhat out of focus, but the one on the left is not. He uses the color contrast to its full potential and I think the lighting is perfect. I also support his decision to keep the image in color because black and white would have caused it to be a lot less exciting. Overall, i find that this photo was well taken and looks quite professional. My only point of critique would be to get both halves of the image completely in focus.

Collage of Faces
