The umbel of a wild carrot[edit]

Original - The inflorescence of a Wild Carrot (Daucus carota) beginning to open. This type of inflorescence, where the flower stalks arise at the same point and all flowers appear at the same level is called a umbel.
Reason
A good quality and high resolution depiction of a umbel taken from a less usual angle, showing the flower stalks and giving a better perspective of the inflorescence's structure

  • Regretful, weak oppose This is an example of an unusual composition that still achieves top enc value, and I don't oppose it for that. However, nothing seems to be in focus. I think the problem is that you're trying to capture different parts of the flower which are (relatively) far away from one another.--HereToHelp (talk to me) 20:18, 20 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
    Comment: The focus appears to be on the top of the stem. I like the image, but everything around the center point blurs a tad. --IdLoveOne (talk) 17:50, 26 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak oppose Inadequate DOF - this would probably work really well as a 5 or 6 frame focus stack. Everything is nicely in layers front to back. Mfield (talk) 20:55, 20 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Weak Oppose. I like the image, but the depth of field is unfortunately too shallow. NauticaShades 21:18, 20 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose Much of the plant is out of focus. And the white part is terribly overblown. crassic![talk] 02:39, 21 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
