    An imaginative image, I reduced the browser mag to 67% to fit the image to my monitor which would not do your image any favours but it still looks good. Yes I think this was a great idea - very appealing.

    A dreamy look at the flower with selective focus. When I look at it, my attention goes to the sepals first, which are out of focus. Would this image better if the sepals were in focus? But artistic images are very subjective, but I think it is a very pleasing image.

    Photographers: Man i love this image looks great. Non-photographers: Why is it out of focus?

    It is in focus, at least where he wanted it to be sharp. Krishna, love the soft look.
