  Beautifully captured and presented, Janine. I always find these to be difficult to shoot and you've done a great job at it!
Much Aloha,
Stan

  I would have to call this one Ultra Shallow DOF. Really amazing results with such a high ISO setting.

  Just a beautiful flower and so effectively presented. Love the way you enhanced the selective focus--the rainbow background complements this blossom--really relatively muted in tone--and creates a very pleasing whole.
