yeah, i also love the idea of using a keychain led as a lightsource for a macro.. well done!
Hughes500 (82 months ago | reply)
yes, I also like the clarness of the drop. The orange lines in the structure are underlined by more color and sharpness. Simply cool!Well done!
As you know, I´m working on some new waterpics/drops, too....

If an semi-abstract macro has to get in the safe this wouldn't be a bad one. But it's not the kind of photography that gets my pulse racing. Interesting enough but not absorbing

A bit 'studied' for my taste, although quite well realised.

It is interesting in its abstractness. Technically a fine job! Unfortunately it leaves me unsatisfied, more questions asked than answered.

Interesting macro. Fine detail work and technically spot on. Unfortunately conceptually I see this as more of a an abstract and it lacks the minimalism that I want. Kind of a subjective response to be sure and you've done as much right as you can so feel free to dismiss my critique but it just doesn't work for me in the end.

jaime.silva (80 months ago | reply)
great photo, and I think you have not to tell what it is. This kind of images can be beautiful abstract compositions. And it's in this way I appreciate it.
A photo, like a painting - considered as art - has not to represent something; up to people to be touched by and/or to interpretate it.
