This cactus with its ring of blossoms just seemed to make a good subject for me. As the emphasis is on the blossoms I decided to use a selective depth of field and only show several of the buds in sharp focus. The mind tells us that the objects are repetitious and we don't need to have them in focus to know what they are. In fact if too many of them are in focus one looses themselves in the business of the image and it looses impact.
