It really is mesmerizing. I was trying to find a better word but I can't. It feels like it's lacking sharpness...so my eye is searching around for a sharp point to focus on. It starts out on the petal and moves inward but the very centre is not quite sharp either...the parts that are, are small and they blend in so well that my eye just keeps moving around and around.

I don't know if that's what you were going for...but well done, none the less.

i hate to repeat everyone, but great shot...mesmerizing.. but ya know what it is?? its the petals veins that pulls your eyes in....and your shot just lures you in.
thats it ....its "alluring"....love the color and texture to it...and the off sides effect..!

I have a confession to make: I can't remember if I PS'ed this or just used shallow DOF. Sorry. Was a long time ago.:cry:

Does it look PS'ed?

And aprilraven thank you for your wonderful comment.
