I like it but perhaps just a fraction on the dark side?
Nicely composed.
This will give me a bit of a kick in the rear. We moved recently, and it has been an unusually slow move because the new house has very little storage and needed a lot of work. One of the things still remaining to be done is to clear out the area in the basement where my table for photographing flowers now sits. Soon, I hope.
Thanks Dan. I am pleased with the way the composition turned out although I am still debating whether I want to keep the neck of the vase in the picture or crop it out. It was also challenging technically because I needed a 65 shots focus stack to cover the five or so inches from the front to the back. This of course created a lot of ghosting. I must say that I truly appreciated the excellent editing capabilities of Zerene Stacker. It also convinced me to get Helicon Focus to control the camera when taking the stack!
I can also empathize with you on the pain of moving having done it 14 times in 26 years when I was working. The one piece of advice that I can offer is: Settle in your new place as quickly as you can. It is hard to enjoy life in a partially completed move.
Good luck
