Beautiful greens and detail on that fern.

Interesting take on the subject. I have this lens too and you are right that you are likely a little too close for it's focusing comfort. I wouldn't say that it's overly soft though. Nicely done and yes it does, or should, give others ideas. -Doug

Really nice greens, love the focus and it's great for your topic. Penny Street

The fern coming out of the bokeh looks really good, I think it's sharp enough for the mood.

Keep it here for a while. It is mighty pretty and could be a contender. I sure like it. With the G9 you can't get this shallow a DOF but it is inspiring ideas. -John

Actually, I think it was too close for my focusing, but I submitted it anyway because I liked its over look and thought it might give people ideas for possible subjects. I'll probably send it off to Pending at some point.

It's so "in your face" :-) Too bad the tip is too close for your DOF -John

Flat lighting works well with macros to avoid bright spots and emphasize what is in focus against some lovely bokeh. Nicely done. -tv
