Painted Chrysanthemum


Photographer: Brigitte Hotzl
Club: Victoria Camera Club

Canadian Points: 13
Scottish Points: 15


Canadian Comments:

Bold, graphic and very painterly. Your Photoshop work gives me the impression that the technique has given this its impact rather than the basic shot underneath it all.


Scottish Comments:

Again loads of impact, the effect that has been added to this picture, I feel works because of the range of colours and tones it's brought out — it's not too heavy, and there are no large areas with nothing happening. The one thing that would have strengthened this image for me is a stronger placed point of interest — your eye goes to the yellows and the blue but none are dominant enough or in as strong enough position
