| Sorry but find this to be the worst in the three you asked for comments on. Just sorry but I dislike the choice of DOF here, I would have liked more of the center of the flower to be in focus as my eye is really drawn there and not towards the front petal like that, I just wanna squint to make out the center of the flower. I definately think you can do better when I compare this to your other two shots :) |

I like the colors chesen in this photo, but I think you should have shot with a slightly deeper DOF this way the inside of the photo would have been in focus. As it is right now my eye is drawn more to the leave in the upper left that is in focus that to the inner flower. Good use of DOF however to blur the background.
Keep Shooting.

| I love the vibrant colors! maybe if you could have positioned the camera so that the inside of the flower was hidden, you wouldn't have to worry about the DOF as I like the softness of the background... also, maybe if the entire background were full of leaves too |

| Nice photograph with strong, lovely colours that satisfy. I like the dark contrast at left, coupled with the softer background at right. Overall, it seems a bit soft, thought it could be said that some flower pictures benefit from a softer focus. I enjoy flower pictures that show the central portion of the bloom in sharp focus, with the petals acting as a kind of natural frame. I also prefer when the subject is not so formally centred. An off-centred subject adds much interest in conjunction with dissecting your frame into thirds, a classic photographic technique known as "the rule of thirds", which you may have heard about and bears searching for on Google. |
