Thank for submitting your photo to the DPC, Free Study VIII.
Interesting capture here. There is one flower over to the left, while the larger group of flowers are diffused in the background.
I like your title. Titles are important because they give a point of information and reference. It tells the viewer, "this is what I am doing". By following the title, you can then see what you were going after. In this case, isolating one flower from the others. Leaving that one flower on the lower left creates a nice flow. Observers are going to see the one red flower and then see the background flowers.
Technically I like what you have done. It does appear that you have over done the BG blurr just a bit. I see the separation very easily, and the blur application almost makes it look like an "impressionistic" type painting. And that's not a bad thing. Did any one say "Bokeh"
Simple, elegant, and appealing. Good job.
Good luck in your next DPChallenge. |

I think there is a little haloing on your flower. did you add the blur artificially, or is that the result of sharpening? |

Monet like macro. The contrast of the focus and bokeh poppies makes this photo sing. Cool stuff. |

This is something I would have been afraid to attempt. You have pulled it off very well. Nicely done. |

Background too pixelated for my taste. I do love the composition and colors. |

Lovely colours and nice composition. The way the very out-of-focus echo the colour of the main flower is very good. |
