[Zach]

As we only have two entries so far, I'm going to give Zach some critique now, in case he wants to post another attempt.

The concept is great, but I personally dislike when not a single flower is fully in focus. The top two have their center bits OOF. The one below is OOF before we get to the ring of petals. I find both distracting. You need a slightly smaller aperture (lower f number) to make this one work.

thanks for the critique David, believe me i know the focus stinks on that pic, but for some reason it appealed to me, i've got a thing for imperfect pictures, they feel real to me i guess. but your right the OOF areas are distracting, that's one reason i toned down the color and vibrancy, it helped draw the eyes off of the OOF problems, at least that what i was going for anyway.

here's the same flower but better focus, i'll let this be my second entry.
