I like this extreme shallow DOF shot. Its more about the colors and not so much the subject in something like this. The sparkles of the area in focus is interesting to look at. Lovely!

Gorgeous. The depth of field is perfect for this one.

A pleasing effect here with the extension tubes but like to see just a tad more focus in part of the flower image is possible. Awesome DOF.....

I do like this but would like to see you keep trying to experiment with more different focus of some parts of the flowers.

This has a lovely soft abstract feeling and I like that.

I myself take at least five or more, different aperture settings on the one flower with my macro lens, and when processing them choose the best one to display.

Well done.

Love the way this flows seamlessly into the background.
Good colors and good detail where needed.

Oh, goody; more fun with extension tubes! I've been trying f/10 to f/16 and bumping up the ISO to compensate. I actually kind of like this but a smidge more DOF would be nice, too.
