Cleano please do not be offended. You have asked for honest crits.

I have enjoyed many of your images, you are a very good photographer and a nice person!

This for me does not please my eye. The colours are very gawdy and oppressing for my personal taste. You may well find other members who like this. but for me it is not to your usual standard my friend.

I am sorry as I hate doing negative crits but I think I would have prefered the original imge.

I myself fall foul to images that I am convinced are right but are not. Of course there is no right and wrong but this is not for me sorry. Though i really do admire your work.

Tco

Hello Tco, my friend!

Thanks a lot for your sincerity and I am not offended at all (but I can tell you no jump from the happiness).
I am sad, because in the last years this is my main activity with photography and digital technique, making art style jobs from photo or more, starting with some geometrical objects using fractal theory and make very interesting jobs.
I want my works to be pleased for wide range of publicity and as I see, sometimes this is no success.
Till this moment you are the one who tell me negative critics for this picture, but this is not a bad thing because I have to come to know that our taste is different. Impossible to supply everybody taste.
And this is the most beautiful in the world, every people is a different world, all of us has own taste and opinion, and this is the totally freedom I think.
Further I believe that arts could not be limited by technique I mean that digital technique is a simple technique, not else, as five hundred, thousand or more years before, any type of technique. The different is the main point, digital technique much more effective like any other ones before.
Generally autumn gives us oppressing feeling, this is what I wanted to express with this job.
At the first time, when I saw my friend's Tedz's works I could not say anything only one thing: "I have not got any information at all about his art". But what I felt very firmly, his works are full of "POWER" so we have to understand them.
In the future you will see more jobs from me like this one and I am waiting for your critics.

Have a nice day my friend

Best regards
cleano

Thank you for understanding the honesty of my crits Cleano.

For this image I should have emphasised really it was just a personal taste crit as there is nothing technically wrong with it at all as a piece of very creative art. There will be many many many people who will love this image. But as you rightly said, tastes of people are very different. You know I enjoy your work very much and I am glad you haven taken my comments as they were intended, without offence and very sincere.

Cheers buddy!! Looking forward to your next creation
