Saffron

by tyronet2000

Do competition judges take notice of the title of the image?

Lens probably the 16-50mm

Not bad.
Could have done, perhaps, with a bit more foreground under the bottom right cherry.
Very pleasant, nontheless.

Thanks for the comment. I Just cropped it for "square" but will leave a bit more foreground on another to compare.

Like the picture Stan, but ref the title and your comment - did it win first place in a comp entitled saffron?

It's never been in a competition. It was my contribution to a thread elsewhere. One of the first things to do with it is retake with the items on a flat level table.

Nice image Stan, but I'm a bit confused about 'Saffron'?

Was in a discussion on another thread about whether judges marks in a competition were influenced by the image title. Obviously there is nothing in this image to do with "Saffron", a goldem yellow colour, so would it be a plus or a minus point. The original image was called "Blue" but that is a bit obvious

Definitely be a minus point in the eyes of a competition judge as it's misleading
But still a great image Stan why was it named saffron

Thanks for the nice comment gtis. The answer is in the other comments. If/when I use this image it will probably be titled BLUE
