I think if the blurred part was cropped out it would cause the focued part to get more of my attention and then I would be 'forced" to look at the folds and the lines of the fabric, which I think is the much more interesting part of your shot. I do like how the lower left fold goes into the corner of the shot. just my opinion.
Definite contrast. Would like to see more DOF. Only the very bottom part seems close to being in focus. Having a soft, fluffy subject makes it tough to get a tack sharp effect
Contrasty but way too busy for me. You have both far and near portions out of focus, which causes the eye to look for a sharp focal point. I think it is in the lower right third of the shot. Now I wonder why I went through the exercise. 4
