		| | Thanks for all the comments, very helpful! There was something I didn’t quite like about this picture when I submitted it, however I couldn’t quite put my finger on it. That is until I got my first comment pointing out that the cropping at the bottom takes away from the overall balance. Oh well I'll know what to do next time, Thanks all. |

		| | Interesting. I kinda like how the front and back peices are slightly out of focus, but the center peice is well focused. |

		| | I like your use of selective depth of field, but think the composition could be improved. |

		| | Nice example of shallow DOF...  I like this ...  8 ...  RLS (Some people don't realize DOF includes in front of the subject as well as behind) |

		| | Framing on this photo could be better IMO.  I think this was a pretty good idea, but a little more DOF and different positioning of the focal point would be beneficial.  Good luck, it is a nice image - Inspzil |

		| | I think cropping off the bottom of the center piece takes away from the balance of the scene. Lighting and focus is good. |
