Lazy Daisy II

After some constructive criticism I reshot this image trying to offset the

Daisy some, remove out of focus branches that are in front in the other

image and obtain better DOF. What do you think? Thanks for taking the

time! Leslie

Leslie... Well,.... Technically you may have answered the comments; but, I like the original. Now, this is excellent and can certainly stand on it's own, but the original and it's soft look just captured my attention and pulled me in.... Just $.02 worth :-)... Mike

 

 

I agree completely with you, what drew me to the first image was the softness. It just does not have the same effect when everything is cleared out. I do appreciate you looking at both and then taking time to come back and give your opinion. Your opinion means a great deal to me as huge admirer of your work :)

Warme regards, Leslie

Leslie, well that makes 3 of us. To me this image has lost its story in the reshoot. It is as Michael said technically sound but the essence of the story has seemed to be lost. I was curious as to what you would do with the advice that was given. It seems you have addressed all of the points brought up, only to realize what you had originally was the better result. That just happens sometimes. All the best.....roger
