I think it's great! the focus is fantastic and i love the yellow/sepia tone to it. I don't know if it's my monitor but there seems to be a very slight amount of noise in it? But really great macro!

Thank you very much Annie . Glad you like it. Thanks for pointing that out to me ... I think you're right. I'll try to work on reducing that noise in future. I've gone over the original RAW file and found a considerable amount of noise in the out-of-focus regions although it was shot at base level ISO (ISO 200).

I'm a bit confused but I think here's why (from looking at RAW file) ... the brightest regions of the image were around the centre. The noise pattern is randomly distributed throughout the whole image but appears prominent in the darker regions because the signal-to-noise ratio in those regions was lower than the brighly lit central region. What do you reckon?

Once again, thank you very much for your in-depth comment .

you're very welcome! I think the most amount of noise if where there is a transition between light and dark. Maybe its the sudden contrast i'm really no expert

Oh this is beautiful! The colour was what drew me to it from the thumbnail but it's the texture that I really liked, along with the DOF and lighting. Well, pretty much all of it actually. XD
