Perfect focus ! The only small thing I would have done is to remove / shift the flower bud which is hanging over the top of the right hand flower.

Nice shot... looks like a photo that would work well as a canvas wall-art or something  Smiley

Beautiful flower but I am not sure about the focus on this one Jen, the back leaf on the right flower looks closest to sharp on my screen.  Is it caused by compressing for the web, how does the original look on your computer?

I wondered the same Odille, so I changed the 'view' settings on PS Elements and selected view actual pixels. It's as clear as I thought, so perhaps the conversion has tampered with this one a tad, but in saying that, why not others which have posted? Thanks for the comments all Smiley

Focus looks spot on for me, right in the centre of the flowers ?

That's what I was aiming at Tim, but I take on board everyone's notions and opinions, in good grace. Sadly I only have one of this flower from the shoot, but I'll be mindful on the next foray to snatch several more images to compare if I'm lucky enough to locate others Smiley
