Here I go again just inviting comments about the DOF and focus.
It is winter here big time and I took about 7 million frozen flower shots. All of the ones that I really liked were a little too "artsy" and didn't pass the family viewing test. I did have a few that passed the family viewing, but they just didn’t do anything for me personally. I was reading some of the posts and ran across somebody saying "just another excuse for a macro flower shot" and YIKES! Immediately shift in gears and developed something for “Too Late”. After a pre-viewing with my artist friend, I was again convinced o go with what I love and let the chips fall where they may. This photo kept drawing me back to it over and over again.

Not clear how it inks to 'too soon' from the image, and the title doesn't help me in that respect. However I'm not a dnmc nazi so I'll vote on the image quality.
