Google was all about speed in 2010 but when it comes to some of their search features there might be ways of speeding up even Google.

For example, if you search for flowers and then scan your mouse pointer over the images in the results and then realize you want roses, you will have to click back into the search box instead of just typing.

Google's text input focus within image search seems to lose its focus on the search box by simply hovering your mouse over the images.

Thank you for sharing your frustrations with this. We're aware of it and looking for ways to solve this problem.
