    Flower composite

    I recently took these photos of flowers around our village, then decided to make them into a composite. Most of them are tulips. The red flower on the right unfortunately has not been properly exposed so I intend to take another in the near future to replace it. Keen to hear feedback and any suggestions.

    Sorry Jim, but this collage is not connecting with me.

    The underlying concept is fine, but the arrangement itself could be stronger. The four shots of single flowers have potential as a group as they are close enough in hue. The group of flowers doesn’t quite fit from a content and size perspective. I’m not sure why the same image oh heart shaped flowers are included either.

    The pattern doesn't work well for me, either. I would rearrange it into a tick-tack-toe pattern and might even add the tick-tack-toe lines. I think that would add interest. If you decide to try it, I want to play. I choose the hearts, and you can go first.

    I agree. I would only add that the I find the yellow background a real distraction. I would go with a neutral color, white, black, or some tone of gray. I wouldn't want yellow to compete with the color of the flowers. I would also make the border narrower. I would get rid of the hearts.

    I personally find the contrast between the group and the individual shots interesting. However, I would spend some time figuring out what things are best next to others, either because of similarities or because of differences. Just play around and see what grabs your attention.

    An interesting idea, Jim. It almost works well for me although I would make the hearts fractionally larger.

    Using tulips will definitely add vibrancy and charm. It’s wise to plan to replace the underexposed red flower for a more cohesive look. For enhancement, consider experimenting with the arrangement to create depth and interest. Adjusting the background can also help the flowers stand out more. Don't forget to fine-tune the lighting and contrast in post-processing for an even more stunning final piece. Can’t wait to see the update! I wasn’t sure how to start writing my thesis, so I decided to give Academized’s academized.com/thesis-writing-service Thesis Writing Service a try. The writer they assigned to me did a fantastic job. The thesis was well-researched and well-organized, and the entire process was stress-free. I was able to submit it on time and received positive feedback from my professor. I’m really grateful for their help and will recommend them to others.

    Nice, I like it. I appreciate your effort. You can use more collage photo frame and it will look more beautiful
