Very funny. DOF works great. Nicely done. I would recommend placing the cactus further to the right or cropping off more of the right side better balance. The lense cap placement is a distraction and could be eliminated from the composition al together.
This certainly brings back vivid memories of my experience. The prickly pear fruit you pictured here looks exactly like the ones I lived on. The fruit is very tasty with a lot of moisture. The down side is it contains a lot if seeds. The deep red stains I got on my hands washed right off, though. The tiny fuzzy looking balls on the outside of the fruit contain bunches of tiny cilia-like spines that always kept getting poked in my fingers and lips while eating and I spent a lot of time afterward picking them out. Ouch!
Btw... I didn't have any toilet paper. You can imagine how much fun that must have been. :) - Steve
LMAO! :D Ah yes, the beloved prickly pear cactus fruit... Excellent to survive on in the middle of the desert, but with some potentially adverse effects... ;) The only potential problem I see with this is that Steve shot with a Sony and that looks like a Canon lens cap. Of course that's just nit-picky. :)
