That was SO much better. You had more than buzzwords going and I think it is honestly way more effective in helping the original poster to understand shortcomings in the work. Still seemed like it was in spite, but better nonetheless.
Saying something is uninteresting is still pretty vague, even if it’s true. Presenting it as, “The sunflowers are uninteresting because that’s how all flowers as shot and it doesn’t stand out” is still an improvement over “It’s not interesting.”
You can follow the former up with suggestions a lot earier too. Suggesting something like shooting from different angles, focusing on more intricate details, working with more captivating lighting, testing yourself with water droplets, etc. are ways to help spruce up a dull-er set of images.
