Nailed it! So many times when I see a transient moment like this I shoot but miss something (focus, motion blur, etc) but you really captured this well, and it makes me laugh. |

I understand that you were trying for a detail shot, but to me it feels that its nose is cut off. I understand that you were limited by your long lens, so maybe cropping tighter in post would work. |

Hey everyone I was traveling so late to this party, so I will keep my comments short to avoid being repetitive. GREAT STEVEN! |

The monochrome processing really brings out the dramatic lighting you used. I love it. If you choose to submit or display it, I might change the title 'cause there's nothing about it that indicates this as an environmental portrait. Great job shooting and editing. |

Damned if I do and damned if I don't! Thank you for your encouragement. I have been trying to get away from my completely representational images of flowers (e.g. the perfect macro consisting of 30 stacked images resulting in tack-sharp focus through-and-through) and move into more creative images (e.g. selective focus, targeting small parts of a plant, etc). So I was out shooting the lilacs blooming and, among many attempts, I liked this composition because I felt it has a pleasing combination of in-focus and out-of-focus elements, which makes it interesting to survey. Agree it's not a typical composition, which might be a single flower with only the petals or only the stamen in focus. |
