 Most of this is in camera - I used a macro lens, put it on manual focus, blurred the focus, and wallaa!!

Not much editing,- cropped, a bit of contrast adjustment, slight vignetting, cloned out dust spots, adj luminosity and reduced noise.


Thanks for the nice comments!

Maybe more a combination of soft focus and shallow dof than missed focus. The sort of image I'd aspire to. It's very pretty.

Soft focus on these flowers almost always makes a lovely image. Well done.

One of my 3 10's in this challenge.
Simple, elegant, not clearly in focus, yet brilliantly enticing. This looks more like hand-brushed art than a picture, and i mean that in a truly positive way. I would be proud to have this hang on my wall!
