Wonderful composition! I also love the almost monochromatic colors. I would prefer more DOF though to emphazise the main subject. :-)

Great shot but I think it needs more dof. I find this lens quite difficult to use and most people who have it here seem to have the same experience. Apart from that a great compo. I knew it was yours from the thumbnail :-) You have a nice trademark.

Wonderful composition and color. I agree it would be nicer with more DOF.

I too thought this was one of yours from the thumb John. Great composition.

Have you cropped this from a much different compositon? Only the POF seems a bit unusual.

Thanks Guys! Ideally I should have used about F5.6 for this shot but something about the shot and the soft background seemed nice to me. The crop is only to the left and right. I like the monochromatic with one color effect. I think I will use it more often!
