 Another that is not the usual for DPC (read: no nude models, no waterfalls). Close-up macro of a couple napkin rings stacked on top of each other. There are actually five rings there, if you look close enough. Curves, levels, minor sharpening.

DOF is very small but gives a nice soft abstract quality to your pic.

There's just too much out of focus, your dof was too shallow.

The DOF seems to be off a bit in this nice colors though

The DoF is a little too shallow in this shot. It might also help if the light were stronger in order to bring out the brightness of the rings.

OK, I see maybe 3 but most likely two. I'll conceed that there are 5 somehow but the picture is hard to look at because it's mostly just a big golden sheet.

Don't just tell me there are five rings, show me five rings. Hint: you need more than a millimeter of DOF.
