really grainy. I like the soft focus, it works well here, but I'm not really clicking with this shot. there is something that is not holding my interest. maybe if it were just the front flower, but I'm thinking that the rear flower is taking away something from the shot. black and white works well with the soft focus. ~Heather~

This is nice. The soft focus works for me, but you'll probably get other comments against it. Very styled looking and smooth, soft texture.

Sharpness is too low to appreciate the texture of the calla.

You know I think this works for the most part, -----the soft focus doesn't along with the crop. The top is trimmed too tight. Sorry.

unfortunately, it's too out of focus to show it's texture

Soft focus makes for a dreamy appearance, but could use something actually in sharper focus to catch my eyes attention as the subject of this shot and add to flower's surface texture.

The soft focus doen't shot the texture. Maybe I am missing something. 5

Comment by undieyatch:
general composition and background depth of field is good, but the overall soft focus on the calla has minimized textural qualities.

The texture here is not a subject feature, but a high ISO settings. To me it´s don´t meet the challenge. You do a great job despite of all I like this picture, but can vote it against my judge.
