Conventional wisdom is to focus on the foreground and sacrifice clarity in the background, rather than having the discordant effect of an out-of-focus foreground.
Tomorrow's photo will be a startling contrast to today's macro photo, as it is decidedly not a macro subject, yet it was taken with the same camera and lens.
We have new photos of Gibraltar on our Viva la Voyage travel photo site this week.

There are certainly plenty of palm leaves to use as subjects.
These days when I take certain shots I try a few focal areas to see which looks the best.. You made a good choice here Dave.
I have done a bit of experimenting with depth of field myself. This palm leaf makes an attractive shot.
Beautiful photo composition, Dave!
What a lovely picture. (I also loved the orchids) Makes me appreciate the patterns in nature.
This is an interesting image, Dave. I await the next lecture tomorrow.
As soon as I become more proficient with my camera I hope to experiment like this also. Great job, Dave.
Conventional wisdom is conventional and not necessarily wise. Follow your vision.
