Its just a photo of a flower. Thats all.
If your getting into photography 2 things which will help you in developing skills.
Just dont do flower macros, even good ones.
Dont get into HDR, when you discover what HDR is stop there and go and learn a technique thats actually worthwhile.

Buy a light meter, buy a 5 in 1 reflector. Youre welcome.

>>2733219
Ok thanks, I already found out what HDR is and I'm definitely not doing that haha.

>1152p
>need some criticism
You missed your mark on resizing, but you're close. Just keep practicing. There's no such thing as a perfect resizer, but as long as you keep improving, that's what matters.

If you were going for a macro, you should've gone closer and cantered the mushrooms. Cliche style and photo but not much to do with a mushroom.

What I said the last thread was just a tip to get into composition. Don't just do everything people say, check it for yourself. Learn gold ratio, rule of thirds, think about leading lines, parallel lines, and remember these are just guidelines to composition, it isn't a must to follow it but always helpful to know.

Also, learn the Lightroom tools, it may feel like cheating but it's not. Learn to use colour, masking, healing etc

As >>2733219 said get that reflector (light meter not so much as you camera has exposure meters, not sure you'd need a lightmeter). Rather get external lights/flash for macro or studio stuff.

>>2733265
Don't know why he's complaining.
Don't worry about the 1000px resize. As I mentioned previous thread, ~1mb or less. And read the sticky.

Thanks for your help
