Barbara: Excellent separation here and really good DOF control. I like the BG elements as well. Might crop some from the right but not a lot. Very well seen and captured. >=))>

Barbara,

I'm just going to repeat Bill's comment. I'll add that I like the mood of the image very much.

I like the simplicity of this picture. The solitary weed against the diffused curly background grasses makes a pleasing comp. My thought for cropping would be to cut out the light area at the top down to the tops of the green grasses in addition to a tiny bit from the right side. :smile:

I am almost echoing Bill;s comments, but might also take some off the top. Overall, nice simplicity in this shot.
