Thanks Tim
To be honest I haven’t much experience in the nature and wildlife area, so probably cant feel the same as you about how it doesn’t sit right.
DOF + focus I felt where best in the area where the light was the brightest, maybe thats a touch too distant from the front of the shot….and too central maybe.
I’ve already cropped a bit so the blue took up around 2/3.
Is it possibly the over-saturation that’s throwing it off? I know the blue is pretty well over cooked in most of the flowers…..too much contrast for you tastes maybe?
thanks for the comments
