Do you think that the flower and the earth/moon is too much !?

Thank you :) Www@QuestionHome@Com

i left some comments on your flickr, my lovely and talented wife actually got excited about it and made all kinds of suggestions, (if she gets excited, it means that she likes what she sees) i told her it was being handed in tomorrow and it is late now, so you probably won't do much more to it!.!.!.
i like it!. if you had another day to work on it you could make some changes and i'd have her relate her suggestions to you but you ought to get a good grade on it the way it is, don't be nervous about making your presentation, everyone in the class feels the same way!. you'll do great!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Your friend has a flower in three of the four images!.!.!. is that representative of seasons!?

I could critique but I'm not going to do that!.!.!. I don't necessarily agree with some of the views and opinions!.

The earth and moon are quintessential to the message as it is they that determine the season in their relationship with the sun!.

I like what you did, I don't like what you did!.!.!. and that is what I like most!. I'm in turmoil as the seasons go and you've given that to me!.

The photos themselves are really good!. But you have them mounted in a strange way!. There is a white section on all of them that I would be inclined to remove!. I would also remove the flowers and earth and moon and move the four photos closer together without them actually touching!. also, the mounting is a bad colour, in my opinion, I would go for a light orange or red!. Or you could use a lovely light blue!. Good luckWww@QuestionHome@Com

I like the leaf and flower, but i don't see the role the Moon and earth play in the concept!. I like the black poster board, it's very complementary!. I would not have put the moon and earth of there, but it's already on there, so you can't remove them!. Just add some Snow flakes:

It's a nice presentation though!.
Haha, i don't have school tomorrow :DWww@QuestionHome@Com

No, actually, the flower, earth, etc!. was the only part that really told me what you were trying to accomplish!. It works, without washing out the pics of your friend!. The only change I'd make (and this might just be an issue because things look different online sometimes) is:
the pics all have basically the same color "feel" except for one!. In my opinion---and that's all art is, when you come down to it, is people expressing feelings, opinions, etc----Spring needs a greener feel, Summer needs more yellow, Autumn contains either grays or bright yellows with white mixed with it and lots of reds!. What you're looking for is contrast and engagement!.
Great start, though!. The Winter shot----killer!. Loved it!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Nothing wrong with the moon and earth!.
Might I suggest framing each pic in the season's corresponding color!?

If you really want to draw attention fold lil strips of colored paper back and forth and glue them to the paper so they are all springy and pop off the paper!.!.!.maybe put a flower of paper snowflake on the end too!.!.
