Probably some of you have seen the WIP thread!?

I'm redoing images. Got some great suggestions and I think it is fnished now?
Still all kinds of comments are welcome.

Is it ok to keep bumping this thread with new redone images?

Thanks Al Ian.
Got some comments about colors and saturation.
So I made a new version.

I dont understand how that mirror could possibly be reflecting the bear?

Because it is not a mirror.

But I guess you are right. If that is what most people think I have a problem.
Oh well :(

maybe a simple variation of the camera angle would add more interest, ie move the viewpoint to look down from a higher angle or up from the "floor"..and/or over a bit so the lamp is partialy off the image and does not dominate the image like it does now....remember the concept of forground, background and mid ground to add interest. bear in mid-ground i think would make it the focus

otherwise, your render of teddy target tummy's fur is good.

Yeah I guess if the lamp was moved more to the right it would distract less.
But I kinda like how you look around the lamp to see that teddy.
Adds depth I guess.
From the teddy you have to explore the image to see the other stuff.
That was the plan.

Plus it is not done in a 3D program ...
where I could move the lamp and press "render" ;)

sorry...maybe i used the wrong terminology. camera, viewpoint..same thing. anyway, just talking generally about composition....where objects are placed within a 2d space to add interest and show depth....don't take it personal.
