Paganini, hope you revisit this picture because i like to say that i radically disagree with your assessment. Of course, just like everyone else you are entirely entitled to your own opinion :) Don't know why i even say that because of all people you don't need reminding of that ;) You object that the focus flower has broken stems (petals?). But you know what? That's NATURE. I like to see nature not an ANTI-SEPTIC man-made 100% perfect rendition of it to suit a photograph glossy. I like to see the 'flaw', the 'oddity' in nature because despite that whatever is real nature always happens to be incredibly harmonious. Nature really is the master artist of all.

Judging from your voting comment, what you are after, paganini, is a Hollywood, Heidi Klum version of nature. (glad i could toss this in :) But real nature is so much more beautiful and interesting than the made-over Heidi Klums. Total perfection ends up being BORING.

The reason i like this image so much is because the focus flower(s) is (are)in focus but just barely, just barely, just barely, and hence it blends in so harmoniously with the shallow dof other flowers.

I have no idea what it is, but I like it. The curves are appealing, the lighting is good and gives it the appropriate chrome-esque shine of metal (or it seems to). The matrix 'lettering' is a nice addition and punctuates the futuristic feel of the image. In some ways, it almost reminds me of an eye.

Congrats, Gordon. Thought this image was stunning. It IS stunning! Am getting a little tired of seeing pretty flowers 'documented'. This goes way beyond that. I believe i said something like that in my initial comment but thought it wise to edit it. I believe it was my only 10.
