    I think this one is a little better.

    Hi Tom!

    Your DOF and the contact between the vases is better in the second shot. I realize this was a vertical shot by I really like this when it's rotated to the right and looked at as a horizontal. There is also one little speck of light coming through that's almost dead center, personally I'd clone it out as makes a hiccup in the lines. Really like the fat colors and the hot and cold contrasts.

    Arne,

    Nice to continue seeing your experiments!
    this one in particular is not as attractive as the previous ones you have shown
    the single line dividing the colors is not as interesting as the intricate patterns you obtained before and the light is simple, no dramatic effects either

    I like the first one, even though I don't like the use of the shallow dof there. I think had the whole thing been sharp it would've been much nicer. yeah 1st one is great. shallow dof is great when you wanna separate an element from the BG as it isolates it and gives it much more prominance, in the case of the first, i don't think it does much for the image. having said that, these, both of them are nice images!
