I really like the way you got the fronds sharp and the background blurry. Perfect depth of field. Ann

Really nice detail in your subject, Arvin...perfectly set against a blurred background. I anticipate the "opening" looking at this. Good exposure too. MFC

I can feel the steely wirey hairyiness of this opening.. Good contrast of the titian hair against the green dofed world.. A great macro..irish_eye

Very nice photography. Excellent use of aperture here to limit DOF. Arvin...you have captured it "Perfectly". Bill B
