Critique Club Review:
I noted your comment about wanting to do b/w pastels. Most voters would not consider any shade of black or white a pastel. Pastels are usually considered pale colors. Here the green is a bit too dark to call pastel, and white is ummmm... white.
I see you wanted to so a soft focus piece, which is fine. But also what I see here is center of the Dandelion is soft, and then there is a sharper ring of focus before it goes soft again at the edges. The soft center competes with the sharp ring.
I like soft focus pictures, but most successful ones have less complex structures. As compex as this structure is, it is a good thing that there were sharp areas. Had the whole thing been soft, it would have looked somewhat like a cotton ball.
Overall, I like this picture. I think it has a lot of potential and I would encourage you to take it again when your coupling ring arrives.
