The photo itself certainly has an interesting composition and subject, but there's definitely something missing in the way of color emphasis. The leaf doesn't stand out nearly enough against the background. They're both the same color and even about the same shades of that color. My eye isn't sure where to look because there is no emphasis on the focal point.
I like this photograph because it seems to have a mysterious element to it. The rule of thirds seems to apply nicely to this photo. However, I believe the leaf needs to have a contrast contrast to the background. The shades look to similar and it can be hard to distinguish, but overall, a pretty good job.
I have to agree, the background could be a little darker - as it is, the leaf almost blends into the background. Otherwise, it's got great composition and an interesting subject. JB SPHS
This is really neat. I like the lighting on the leaf and how it is crisp against the blurry background. The holes in the leaf make it even more interesting. Great job AM-SPHS
I really love this picture Hannah! You did a excellent job. i love how the leaf is so clear and in focus. The contrast in the picture made me really like this picture. The lighting is great. I wouldn't change anything about this image.
I really like this picture. It's strange how it sort of gives you a sense of vertigo. You can't quite tell which direction the leaf is hanging from. Good job. MS @ SPHS
I really like how the focus of this picture is the center of the hole in the leaf. It makes you take a reality check because on one side of the leaf things are clear and known, while on the other side things are blurred and surreal.
This high school photoblog is the product of the photography students at Spain Park High School in Hoover, Al.
Students take turns posting one of their images along with a brief explanation each school day. The students also trade critiques with their peers from other schools around the country (see high school blog links below).
We are always looking to expand our participating schools. If your photography program starts a blog, email Mr. Myers so he can add your link to our growing list. emyers@hoover.k12.al.us

This picture really draws the eye in. I like the color contrast as well. NICE!
