Oppose - It's a lovely composition, but not enough of the plant is in focus - just a single flower, even at preview size. For an FP, we need a lot more depth of field, at least as far down as the nearest leaves, preferably farther. Could you have another go at it?

Yes, the focus is to be on the flower head. I've added a shot with less distracting other stuff. The shots are at f/22 already (EXIF data was lost from uploads due to using raw files). —

Hmm. I could support the crop, but is there no way to get more of the plant in focus somehow?

Not really, unless
focus stacking tricks were used, or the angle of the photo was very different. The photo was already with a small aperture (
f/22). Also the subject is in a different city to me. Besides ... having the leaves in focus would mess with the composition :). —

Support the second picture, the one with a tighter crop. Excellent picture, I hope I'll take pics of similar quality some day (re my rocoto pic below ;))
