The color and the focus realy make this pop. However, I think it would be even more effective if the central area of focus was really sharp. It still seems a bit soft to me and I think the contrast between sharpness and soft focus would be strong

This is one of the best Lensbaby photos I've seen. You've managed to create a real sense of energy and movement. I like it alot

Nice color and light Catherine. I sort of wish that the in-focus 'sweet spot' was a bit more to one side of the photo. As is, I tend to feel like I am sucked into the center of the photo rather than being able to explore the whole thing.

Catherine

This is mesmerising. One is quickly drawn to the center to explore the arborising red lines. Well seen and composed.
