Floating Flowers

This image has become one of my favorites simply because of the shallow depth of field. The way the flower itself takes center and the leaves in the back are blurred, in my opinion, make it seem as if the flower is floating in place. The stem is out of focus entirely and mainly hidden behind the orange petals.
Depth has been a bit more fun to play around with when it comes to up-close and centered subjects. I live for minor details that we normally wouldn't pay much attention to had we held it in our hands, but using it now with the background out of focus, it gives our eyes a chance to truly pay attention with little to no distractions.
