Even with the one pestal out of focus, it's still an amazing shot. What lighting did you use?

i think it's pretty....bright....vibrant without getting all flat looking.....and the focus works for me because it takes me down to to lower right quadrant in a straight low stress kind of way.....

thanks

Beautiful image. If I had been shooting this and trying to over-think it I doubt I would have put the focus where you did. So, I'm glad you shot this and not me, because I really like how it turned out. It's a nice abstract quality with beautiful colors and just enough in focus to remind you what you're looking at. Thanks.
