  the old image I wasn’t satisfy with..
  
  A lot of struggling to get the visual balance right. Is it balanced now?

  Hi Valery , I can no way advise you on your photos as i know you know what you are doing but just to say my honest first thoughts as i scrolled down when the onions appear i think is the name of these veg the Luminously on the main veg at the center felt a touch bright , this could be my monitor , my taste in editing styles ect but that was my first thoughts .. I do like the composition a whole lot and your background looks fantastic with the veg tones.

  The composition works well Valery.
  Just curiosity … the photo above is very dark, but when I click on it, it’s much brighter …. I assume the brighter one is the right one?

    Hi Diane. I’m also on a PC. There is a slight difference in brightness for me also but it is very minor. Maybe check if a different browser and or photo viewer would make a difference for you. Windows photo viewer is a total waste of time IMHO.
    
    FYI I’m using Firefox and FastStone Image Viewer

    Hi Valery, I’m on a PC …. when I look at the photo as it is in the thread, it is dark …. if I click on it the photo appears lighter.

      The phenomenon called simultaneous contrast in which the background on which we are evaluating color strongly affects our eye’s ability to correctly perceive the color , i also think our perception of how luminous something is also included , The background of the forum is bright that will make the photo look dark ( without clicking on it ) when you click on it and it seems brighter that is because it’s sitting out from the white forum background and within its own frame 🙂

  I like the composition and the color of the background. Maybe I’d add a bit more space on the left side; it feels very tight.

  Love the colour and composition Valery. I too feel it’s a touch tight.

  Hi Valery, the composition is great. I also like the light and the colours in the photo. Maybe add a bit more space around 🙂

  I think the light element of it is balanced, I just think it needs a smidge more space on the left.
  
  Sorry!
