cactus stems

One from yesterday's visit to an arboretum. Thanks to whoever straightened me out on the terminology once in the past.

I really like shooting these plants. Shot right, they can waver from plant to odd landscape to full on abstract. Looking at this one, I would like to see the front lobe that is in focus dominate a little more of the frame. Did you happen to take the same shot with the middle lobe in focus?

I did take a bunch of them. Shortly I'll post one in a completely different vein - much more DOF, more stems - but this one is about having just an edge in focus and using everything else as background.
