Artist's Comments

Beijing

A slightly retouched version. Although the 'flawed' first one didn't seem to bother the 170 people who collected or faved it in 3 days.
And I did use a darkened vignette on the corners.

:iconkaddieee:
First of all, the picture had a great impact on me, with it's great composition and stunning colors.
The floral pattern gives the whole arrangement an interesting twist. I also love the fact that you chose a square format for this image because it makes it really harmonious in my opinion.
What I don't agree with is your post-production. When I see it correctly you made use of the lasso tool and then used something like a Gaussian Blur to blur the edges of the image, probably to give it more depth. I would've liked it better if you had used a slight (black) vignette to frame the image and to bring the attention of the viewer more into the center of the picture or if you had feathered the edges of your selection a little so your editing wouldn't show that much.
Overall great work, you created a pictre that will stay in the minds of the viewer with its simple beauty.
