Hey Ovidiu,
Another excellent example of shallow DOF! Your compositions make this outstanding and the focus is dead on! This is a prime example of how shallow DOF images should look and be composed!:cheers:

Very nice and soft, Ovidiu! I like how you positioned the focal point on the ROT hotspot. The spiralling leaves around it make a strong composition.

[Allen Sparks]

very nice. love the soft rippling affect and similar color tones. good focus choice also.

Hi Ovidiu. I agree with the above comments. A strong shallow DOF image with a distinct focal point in the ROT position. Nice even lighting with an interesting mix of pastels. Very well done.

What a beautiful rose! Luscious, soft color. I like that the whole image is pink. Soft light and perfect focus point. Well done! Makes me want to see this flower in person!!

[Brendan Dozier]

Very nice soft compostion, Ovidiu. Like the soft light and subtle variations of color. Nice work.

I second everything said above--well done!
