| If this was cross-processed, it would be beautiful. |

| Wonderful potential, just a lack of sharp focus... If this is intentional soft focus, it does not work for me. |

| May I suggest a little better focus would do the picture some good? |

| Rather than resulting in a soft focus effect, this just looks like the DOF isn't as it should be. Good exposure, though. |

| It's got beautiful color and depth of field. It just doesn't appear to be in focus. |

| Since the center part of the rose is the darkest in color, that's where the eye goes (at least mine) and one wants to find that a little more in focus. Not crisp, necessarily - soft is fine - just a bit less blur. Nice light and color. |

| I really would have preferred to see the center in very sharp focus.. Looks like there may have been a little motion blur wich imho takes away from the beauty of the shot. |
