Default Color Blur


Just playing around with DoF, and ended up with this shot. Reminds me of a Renoir or Monet painting, but I kept a small flower in focus to provide some depth.

Isn't it funny, if we were to dress in these colours we would be laughed at for having no colour sense, but these colours in nature just compliment each other and look great. I would have loved to see the flower face on though instead of from behind.

The colors are fantastic. Hmm... I don't believe I would think to do that. Imaginative!

Very nicely done too. I love the burred colors. They accentuate the lovely flower that's in focus. TNX!

Thanks for comments guys. I would have liked to take the flower from front, but then I wouldn't have this background.
