Sta.sh
That is simply an amazing shot - almost other worldly
to be able to capture something like that; it's like the image is moving.
I think I've visited this temple, stunning shot.
Most would think to take a frontward shot, this is different and its really striking.
Those three blurred petals that are much closer than the others really make the shot complete - you have petals in the background and the foreground. I really love it!
Glad you like it
I like the overall color scheme, very enchanting, ancient, warm, but natural which lends itself well to the subject matter. The pedals are well composed and I'm sure there are many shots where they weren't floating in just the right spots, but good choice with this one. I'm not sure how much post production you do, but I would suggest doing a basic transform on the whole image to correct for the slight perspective distortion that you can see as the left most pillar slowly diverges from the left side of the frame. By widening the image at the top you would get everything square and it would be technically a more engaging piece.
Finally, the sky in the background seems bland and may worth warming up with a slight warm tone at a very low opacity so it isn't a visual trap in the middle of the frame and may separate the sakura trees from the sky more too.
Overall really good or else I wouldn't have mentioned anything.
You're other works are stunning and you most likely thought of everything I crit'ed anyway.
Sincerely,
Andrew Marston
