I really like the image as is. However, since it's called "Two Couples" I think two stalks should be in focus and the other two out of focus. Which is which I leave to the photographer -- or maybe one stalk is cheating on another to form a manage a trois, in which case there are several new levels of intrigue to the picture.

I like that one stalk is out of focus -- it gives the image more depth. If this is two couples, than one couple is in trouble!

Very, very nice light and color. I would prefer also the fourth one to be in focus, but one can not have everything, right?

Thanks Roberta! I have now reprocessed this one as well - for more detail and less noise...

Olaf,
Stunning shot. Enjoy the 135/f2!

Thank you Vikas and Angela! Concerning the color, I enhanced reality a bit by setting a high Kelvin value for the white-balance. Angela, I laid my hands on my 135/2L for the first time just about three weeks ago. Also, got myself a 1.4X TC to go with it and a 20/2.8USM. I'd had those two lenses on my wish-list for a long time before that...

Olaf, this is beautiful. Stunning color. When did you get the 135 f2L?

Lovely shot Olaf, really nice. The b/g is stunning as is the gold colour.
