Iris Siberica

Please critique and comment.

Its a beautiful flower, it has beautiful colors, and the framing is first rate. Unfortunately its not well focused. Its not just a little soft. It looks positively out of focus.

Yup, you are right as rain. Driven by days of seclusion and out of boredom I tried to shoot this today with using only my left hand. My right wrist was fused in surgery last Friday and it is in a cast up to my shoulder. Ergo, framing, focusing and clicking the shutter is a serious and painful stretch. God knows when I will have use of my right paw again so this is as good as this gimp can do for now. I am glad that the one handed created background pleased you.

Soft focus... why even frame it? There's not a sharp part in it.

Bite it Gregory. As I said back in May, my wrist had been fused in surgery, my eighth and that is as good as I could do back then. So maybe a tad of understanding might be in order here? Then again, you are welcome to your opinion.
