Welcome to CNP Saritha !

Back to the image do you mind sharing some of your thoughts ? I see an an attempt at some abstractions and arrangements. I thinking bringing in some more visual order would add a lot I guess. May be you need just one signature on the frame? :)
Thanks for sharing. Hope you will enjoy participating here.

Welcome Saritha !!! Your first post here and it has kicked off with a nice display of chaos. I am liking this image so much for the tone and I like the dof too and the chaos too is not much disorganized that it would ask for a release. There is an overall balance. I too would love to know if only the visual elements appealed to you or was there more than that which helped you to decide on a frame like this. May be just one small signature out of the frame will help to see the image better.

Welcome to CNP Saritha!
Interesting tones here. This shot has two distinct images. First one ends at the near vertical flower which takes off from the bottom of the frame. It splits the frame nearly into two halves (left 60% right 40%). Second frame starts some pixels to the right of the split. The left frame has a continuity of focus as we move from laft to right which is lost abruptly the moment we reach the split. That's what makes the right part look out of place. Maybe this is what Ganesh means by visual order.
Thanks for sharing

Ganesh, Thank you very much for welcome note and for posting your comment & suggestion.
That particular day i went out looking for a regular beautiful flower with the intention of clicking and presenting
it differently, instead found myself discovering the attractiveness in something which appears visually less pleasing compared to the beautiful flowers i saw there..........end of the day it is 'finding creativity in disorder/unusual'

Nilanjan, thank you very much for your comment & suggestion, I did find lot of attractive flowers in the surrounding area, this scene was less appealing comparatively, it was more about of the thought process running on my mind, it is the various aspects of nature (playing its role in a different manner) connecting and getting together. I Will avoid placing multiple signatures in future.

Nirlep, thank you very much, yes it is a lot of learning on CNP, it definitely expands my ideas/creativity.
That is a good observation, I should have avoided the tiny flower going out of frame on the left side.

Hi Saritha, welcome welcome!
it's fun to see another girl on this forum :)

thanks for this image... i love it intuitively - and of course when you put on your thinking brain, the 60-40 observation comes up!
but i like the tones overall and i couldn't help notice the yellow loner :) Would you by chance have an image focused on it and with the white flowers out of focus? That might also have been an interesting take... what say?

warm regards,
Arati

I exactly had that thought of focusing on the yellow flower there and framing rest of the dried one around it as out of focus circles. But I felt that would be my wish :)

Hello Arati, Thank you very much for your greetings and comment. Glad you liked it. I did not shoot any image focusing on the yellow flower because I really liked all these tiny white little flowers scattered prettily (though not in order), this scene lead to lot of thoughts on my mind as I have explained in my reply to Ganesh & Nilanjan......

But next time if i get a chance to do it again, you will have your yellow flower in focus ;-)
