Untitled

thanks!

It is nice to be reminded of spring when we are in the onset of winter. Unfortunately too much of this picture is out of focus--it is brightly coloured and the viewer is left contemplating the background at the expense of interest in the subject.

Hello, thank you for your remark!

The out-of-focus part (bokeh) establishes the background which thus provides the contrast to let the crocus shine.

Only in the digital-camera world everything is sharp. with the equipment used, i.e. velvia 135 (50asa) film more DOF would have been impossible. I admit having missed the crocus bottom which would have added more foreground. (The circumstances didn't allow it.) I also admit, that the colour saturation auto-correct is a bit too strong.

Best regards, g.

This is a beautiful angle and with wonderful bokeh, I also love the reminder of spring.
