| The center and corners being the only things in focus gives this a rather funky appearance. Maybe it would work if there was some space around the in-focus bracts at top and bottom, but I don't find it very interesting as it is. |

Interesting picture, very shallow depth of field and almost a complete lack of noise. I also like a way that the border draws your eye towards the dark parts of the image, therefore providing greater contrast to the blue in the image.
I personally think that the depth of field should either have be used to concentrat on just one particular part of the image, or that you should have used a greater depth of field to show off the shape that you have in this particular picture. The shape is not really borne out by the fact that it is a bit blurred.
Also by using a very shallow depth of field, but not concentrating on just one particular element, you have ended up with a picture where you effectively have three parts in focus which are on a diagonal from bottom left to top right. This leaves the opposing diagonal somewhat empty and devoid of focus. Maybe it is this that seems to unbalanced this particular image.
As it stands there is something that I don't quite like about the image, but it is very good nonetheless. You have also achieved very crisp focus, which is obviously a benefit in a macro. Good luck. |

Technical: fits the challenge. Exposure composition focus lighting all good. Is this a duotone, or...?
Personal: This is so macro I can't tell what it is!
My vote: 7 |
