I think people like to see every part of a flower in focus so this may not do well. But what I liked was how the textures of the flower were emphasized in parts of the petals. Used my $10 extension tube again.

More nifty hardware to add to your profile page, which is becoming way more colorful and interesting than those of the mega-ribbon winners. You really do know how to reach an audience - I stand in awe!!
Oh, I so agree with Melethia's comment here! *grin* Nicely said, Melethia!

I didn't vote on this challenge but when flipping through the photos I noticed this. It is so intimate, right there, can't look away - amazing effect. Very arty and most interesting.
Just looking through the entries for the first time. Cool shot. I like how the tip of the bud is in focus, then it fades to softness below, then there is the unexpected petal edge in focus at the bottom.
Well this is just ludicrously underrated - I was expecting to see a top 10 or 20 with this. The shallow DoF is just perfect and those who wanted it deeper are, well, wrong! ;)
I really loved the dof here and the way you took something that was way past its 'sell by' date and made it look beautiful again. Great sharpness and the tip of the rose looks to be coming out of the screen. Certainly deserved more recognition than it got
