    testing your setup?

    don't mind me saying this, but your subjects or intended subjects isn't well compose.
    #1 - no focal point, can't tell what you intend to show
    #2 - better, but subject is too centralised
    #3 - best of the lot, do watch out for hotspots (white areas in the background)
    #4 - again, what you intend to show? I would prefer a lower angled shot, making the flowers less spacious
    #5 - lack contrast, would prefer it in portrait, landscape have too much negative spaces on both sides
    #6 & 7 - might be better if you choose a less cluttered background or perhaps a lower f-stop to blur the background

    I like pic 3 best. Probably can increase the exposure by 1 to 1.5 step to capture the different hues of greenry. Just my 1 rupee worth of thought

    #3 is great! I can feel it right here when i'm typing, the feeling of what you're trying to portray a mystical sense.

    Great effort,

    Cheers!

    tcy,
    I like the original #3 better. The edited one is a bit too bright for me.

    the gloomy-ness of your original looks better, by increasing your exposure not only brightens the photo but also the hotspots at the back and it is extremely painful to look at

    Agree with Simon. The original one seems to set the mood too. The repost, makes it all too ordinary. The rest, I think covered by Simon already.
