The best prediction system ever is letting me down. He *has* to love me....at least a little bit?

Fantastic shot! I love the angled crop and the wild DOF. Great work! Is that you in the photo?

All the best,

Endre

Really nice take on the theme. I agree with Endre totally on the crop and DOF both are excellent. Terrific entry.

Great concept and DoF. A great entry.

I really like this entry...very creative! Looks like you had to go through a mess of flowers to get the answer you wanted Good luck!

Excellent composition, and clever idea. Nicely, done

Hehe, thank you. I really wanted this DOF, and it was quite tricky to get: I had to strech my arms quite a lot, without making it too visible.... hence the angle... and yes, it is me on the picture...

The mess started last evening, when I had to actually fetch them from the park, after a super heavy rain, just because the florist didn't get any :-( but yes, had to go through a lot of them :-)
Glad you like it!

Thanks everyone :-)

While it's not technically perfect as other shots, the drama and the emotion portrayed here easily overcome any minor technical flaws and are second to none. What can I say? You got my vote.

Happy shooting,
Yakim.
