I was going for a soft focus look so am glad it was notice.. As for the uninteresting part.. It is from one door of a 40+ year old hand carved solid teak wood cabinet.. The Thai's didn't use power tools in the 60's.. it speaks volumes in the skill and attention to detail of their work..
A good find, however I think this is somewhat out of focus. Also rather than shooting straight on, a different perspective might have helped to add interest by showing the depth of the carving in shadow.
