C&C On a photo before I enter it in a contest

Cheex · May 22, 2012

I'm entering this to a contest this week and would like some feedback before I submit it. The title of the contest is "Capture the Color".

Getting ready to launch by Chodie89, on Flickr

Wow... Just wow! Love it! The colors are great!
If I were to try improve something, it would be the blown sky... but it doesn't look that bad at all

Congratulations and good luck on your contest. Let us know how it goes!

good color, I agree the blown sky adds to your photo but only because the color of the baloon stands out against it.

With so many beautiful flowers I with you had included them in your foreground. The picture feels like something is missing because of it.

Personally I would just assume someone is going to print and frame it. I would clone more sky on the top so the baloon wont be too close (or cut off) by the frame or mat. Awesome photo!

Fantastic shot. The blown out sky works here.

I would clone out the cars, but otherwise a great shot.

I agree that the blow sky works here. The point about the framing is a good one, though, and one you may want to consider if you are printing this (WHICH YOU SHOULD!!!).

Epic!

Stupendous! I wouldn't change a thing! Would love to see a large print of this!

Would you mind telling how you took it? I mean exposure and equipment.
Whenever I see a photo as good as this one, I try to learn from how it was taken.

Nominating it for photo of the month... Just beautiful

Great shot; would love some more information on how you took the image and how you processed it.
