This is absolutely exquisite... I love the smooth shallow DOF and the rich, solemn color tones.

Woefully underappreciated by the masses. It doesn't say "wow" - instead, it quietly invites you in to stay a spell. Really lovely composition with the delicate arches, and light to die for. Wonderfully toned. And if Andre likes it, you know it's good. :-)

Love the simple lighting and the dark background. Beautiful capture of the textures.

I hope others recognize this for the beauty it holds. My only suggestion would be to crop off some of the dead space at the top. Certainly a great example of an unsharp yet good image!

Wonderful tones, very well suited to the graceful arch of the plant and texture of the seeds.
