The shallow depth of field is distracting.

Wow excellent, love the use of depth of field. watch that you dont crop your subject matter too tightly, esp at the bottom, would have been nice with a little more room there. Great colours, well done.

This is neat -- I am wondering if it would look even more interesting if the back part of the lach was in focus?
