Photographer's Request for Critique

Wedding bouquet

My take on a very tradional theme. I have tried to tie together three aspects important to any bride on her wedding day: The bouquet, the dress and the ring. I am opting for a "soft" feel, without getting sappy, I hope! This photo is taken in natural light in the hall outside the photo studio, waiting to get in. Your comments and ratings are much appreciated!

Well planned

I like it. Its different, but that's what you were going for. The image pulls you in and is very interesting visualy. I'm sure it will be treasured by the Bride as its very personal. Nice work!

I agree, the DOF field works really nicely, as does the off-centre composition. Nicely done.

Very nice compostion

The flower is off set from center, dress in detailed to the threads. As far as the hand and ring, I think using LDF is a nice touch but I would not have wanted so much of it. Too much out of focus. It draws too much to the flower and not as much to the occasion.
