I am really unsure about this challenge, I wasn't sure what really met the challenge or not so this is my attempt.

I passed this orchard on the way home and immidiately knew I had to do a photoshoot there sometime and I thought this challenge would be a good time to try. I shot this at 1.7 aperture and just made it out of focus and tried different levels of outoffocusness and this one looked best to me and so I sharpened and did general coloring and lighting adjustments to help make the girl stand out.

I'm telling myself you did this in camera, in which case I'm very impressed.

Got bokeh trees? I think this would have worked better in the bokeh challenge. Love the composition.

Nice attempt. I think I would appreciate the photo more w/o the girl in jeans and a tank top. Kind of breaks the spell.

Has the feel of an Impressionist painting. Nice job.
