I admire your work, John, and what you post is mostly so good, that I
appreciate you posting a few that are only very good to boost my morale.

Great flower, color and background. Could use better focus at the top, as could
many of mine.

Technically excellent. A bit cold for my personal taste.

Very nice! Might be even better with a little more light in upper center
darkness. Photoshop?

A little light unless I dim my monitor a bit, then I like it a lot.
Got a few more up this evening, again still need to put a page
together, so they're the raw JPEG files.

What's to say, technically excellent lighting studies.

Either not enough DOF or the plane of focus is too far forward. Even out
of focus, the background pattern is too strong and distracting.
Photoshop can fix that.

Love it. Same slightly distracting bokeh that I get with the Tamron 60-300.

Lovely subject, lighting and composition. Not enough DOF for my taste.

Something about this is sort of sterile or flat, no depth, can't quite
put my finger on it. The Out of focus mass in upper left is distracting.

Pretty flower, nice composition except I'd lose the sharply focused
little hairs on the bottom. The out of focus petals on the lower left
detract from the image for me. I have the same problem with my flower
shots. Getting the DOF and focal plane just right is far harder than it
seems it should be. A bit of far side light might pick up the
undulations in the center of the petals and give a little more depth to
the even white expanses.
