DoF isn't quite right and highlights and shadows both lost.

Good idea. Colors are nice. Wish the focus were stronger. Perhaps crop tighter on the left. Right now it's a bullseye. :)

Comment by shutterpuppy:
good idea. there is a lot of interesting texture to explore here, and I wish that you hadn't used such a shallow dof. compositionally, i would push the pea to the left so that there wasn't so much dead space on that side. - 6

In terms of the challenge, I can relate to this entirely. I do, though, wish that it was in much sharper focus - the problem is that you have selected such a narrow depth of field that the bean cannot be in focus at the same time as the shoot; whilst shallow dof is usually good in macro photography, in this case it is just too shallow.

YAY! i grew so many seed thingies in school...most of them died though. The focus feels weird to me here.

Good idea in general but the lack of focus really hurts this image.
