Flashback-Redo #5

I think to make the original better, I will have to wait for spring. I think I was trying to get the tree shadow as well as the iris and their shadows. So all I could think to do to improve this one was to correct the perspective. Here is the original: https://365project.org/shutterbug49/365/2023-04-21

NIce! Well done on the redo

[Olwynne]

Beautifully captured

[Beryl Lloyd]

Nice capture - the shadows are very prominent ! to me it distracts from the irises

[Shutterbug]

@beryl I see that. It would have been better to mute the shadows, recognizing the irises as the subject. Here the subject is confusing. Thanks for the feedback.

[KoalaGardens🐨]

I love it

[Casablanca]

Irises are a family favourite here. Nice play

[Beverley]

I looove this!!

[Margaret Brown]

Lovely capture!!

[Kathy]

You did make the shadows darker. A pretty look at those iris.

[gloria jones]

Pretty.

For me, flowers are secondary here. I see pattern and shadows. The shadow of the tree is particularly important, it looks like the team leader.

I like the shadows. I don't know if you plan to play with this one , but I wondered about a quite heavy crop to just keep the trio of 3 flowers and shadows ... Cheers Rob

@robz I just did this and it looked quite good. It did reduce the distraction and made the subject be the iris rather than mostly the shadows.

[Rob Z]

@shutterbug49 That's great - thanks for letting me know.

[Joan Robillard]

Lovely

[Christine Sztukowski]

Delightful

[Walks @ 7]

To me, the tree shadow is almost protecting the little irises.

[Corinne C]

Lovely composition and colors

[Valerie Chesney]

I like this very much!
The tree shadow however, to me, is just a little too overpowering.
Those gorgeous Iris's are so strong & tall..

[eDorre]

These 2 shots are a tie for me

[Issi Bannerman]

Oh, nice. Great shadows.

[Wylie]
