Actually, I took many shots of this, from slightly different angles and with slightly narrower apertures. I was trying to get the background "just right" and when I looked at them on the computer, those with a narrower aperture had ~very~ harsh backgrounds. I would have preferred more dof on the leaf as well, but the bad-bokeh trade-off just wasn't worth it. This was the best compromise. Thanks for your comment, and thanks to Jack and Dave and everyone else who looked. cheers, frank -- "Sharpness is a bourgeois concept." -Henri Cartier-Bresson -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
