 Shot of dry twigs and buds taken against a flourescent matte surface. I particularly like the soft focus on some of the buds in the background which create a nice sense of depth.

Great idea. The angles and gray background give a very "pencil drawn" feel to the photo.

Deserves much higher score.

This would be a very nice shot with more depth of field. The foreground (lower left) seems to be the focal point but the blurred image in the back disrupts.

Nice, almost an abstract image with the shallow depth of field.

Really neat idea, but the out-of-focus buds in the background are competing and overwhelming the ones in the foreground
