Boy, that shallow dof and the wilting leaves really work for you in this, Marie. The colors and lines in the background are beautiful and a great foil for the clarity of the leaf and droplets you singled out. #4599913

Very nice DOF on this shot, Marie. You picked the perfect time to take shots like this one. I love going out in the garden after a rain to take pictures! My next door neighbor is always teasing me about taking photos in my yard during or after a rain. Good job! #4600026

This image is perfect as is (direction of blade) because it adds drama to an EOD artistic image. #4600273

Olve the abstract feel the DoF gives to the back ground while keeping the foreground in focus. Excellent work. #4601267
