Been trying something a little different this afternoon with a bunch of lilies: ANy comments/critique welcome.

And a few other macros that I don't think I've posted here before:

First are very abstract - I Like em - possible a tad more contrast might help?

The 2nd Lilly would look good on a large Canvas but the other Macros are a bit boring.

I disagree. The first three are all excellent abstracts. Even though they are minimal in detail, this is what makes them vastly more interesting than the usual generic macros posted on these forums. Great use of colour. I'm very impressed.

None of them would look out of place at an exhibition.

Apart from the last two which i think are a bit 'normal' i really love them! They'd look great on a wall somewhere

Thanks for the comments. Nomore, I think you just made my day.

Really nice shots

I particularly like No. 3.

I really like the third one

Lovely work overall.

Really liked the first two, not so keen on the third. I think you should do some more in the same style

1, 2 and 5 really do it for me

what kit are you using?

Bluebells · 23 Jul 2006 at 22:40

The lillies look great but the grass seems to be a tad blown out.

So it is... I don't know how I didn't notice that before; it's jumping out at me every time I look at it now.
