The magnificent depth of field makes this one irresistible ~V~

Yes...this works well and you used the perfect hue of blue....not strong or overwhelming...a detailed and delicate image. Racine - V

Such a sense of fragility.

Phillip Normanton		11-Jan-2010 21:51
Mmmmmmm - lovely blue mood! I think the DoF is perfect!

Mairéad		11-Jan-2010 21:26
I really like this, beautiful tranquil colours and the focusing works fine for me too. V

Doug Cruden		11-Jan-2010 19:21
That's beautiful! I see what Peter means, but I disagree!! I like the focus fall-off around the central flower, it really keeps the eye on the subject and makes the rest of the image a beautiful dreamy landscape of gorgeous blue petals...excellent shot Lisa, I'm looking forward to the next four days :o)) V

Aud Elise Sjøsæther		11-Jan-2010 16:56

A beautiful shot. Well done.

Mieke WA Minkjan		11-Jan-2010 04:10
beautiful blue work!

Walter Otto Koenig		11-Jan-2010 03:23
I think the depth of field is just fine in this. I don't think macros are as effective with a deep depth of field and anyway you got the focus where it needs to be, perhaps a little crop on the right might be worth trying. All that aside I think it's a beautiful shot with these tones and details. :)

Cindi Smith		11-Jan-2010 03:20
Oh, this works all right. It works beautifully!

Sam X		11-Jan-2010 03:17
wonderful... great job

Lovely light and tone.

Fay Stout		11-Jan-2010 02:36
I like this very much. Has a very soothing feel to it...

LynnH		11-Jan-2010 01:38
Excellent. A nice change to see soft shades and delicate light in a monochrome image! You did a great job with this. I agree about the DOF, could have been slightly larger. Still, I am happy to vote.

J. Scott Coile		11-Jan-2010 01:29
Beautiful!!!

Ed McConnell		11-Jan-2010 01:16

This works nicely Lisa... I like all the repeating shapes and the color is delicate and lovely.

stoge		10-Jan-2010 23:59
Beautiful!V!

Guest		10-Jan-2010 23:52
Keep up the experimentation Lisa! The 70-200 f2.8 has a lovely OOF signature, although I think a larger DOF, to get the main flower completely in focus might improve. That said, it would have easily effect the rest of the image, with increased focus elsewhere... tough image, the center in focus really holds the eye though.

Stephanie		10-Jan-2010 23:37
This is lovely Lisa! Is it dried hydrangea?

marie-jose wolff		10-Jan-2010 23:37
sumptuous blue tones! V
