Thank you Shu, very glad that you liked it.

This is great! Simple, yet gets to the point (DOF) and the message plays a great part in its appeal! shu

Thanks RK.

Nice subtle DOF here. - RK

Forgot to mention, CJ is right. If you notice the NB starts OOF then be focused then OOF again, and that's what I was going after. Good eye CJ.

Thanks Rod, and glad you liked it CJ.

Cute idea Aam and I can see the DOF in the notebook! :-) CJ

I couldn't see the DOF until Mary Anne mentioned the spirals & there it was.
I'm now thinking wot I want:-)

I got that spiral angle, but the rod reference is a no no. Let him think what he wants :)

Thank you Mary Anne for the comment. Angeling the spirals would seem a little cliched, don't you think. Oh, and another Rod reference and I'll ... never mind.

Since you seem to have taken several versions of this, how about angling the pad so that the spirals are closer to the camera and more noticeably OOF? I think that would more closely meet Rod's criteria here. It's a great idea, Aam, and a welcome break from all the flower photos. (I've added my share, so the comment is not meant as a criticism of anyone, just an observation.)
