desaturate all colors sharpen a bit blur a bit sharpen edges auto curves auto levels auto contrast played with brightness and contrast

overall im not really happy with it becuase of the bead in the middle i could not get it to not be blazing white...no matter what i tried. i mean if i was able to select i probably could but thats how it came out in all the photos i took. i made this dream catcher btw. other images of ones i have made are on deviant art i have the same screen name.

Critique Club feedback -

I'm afraid that by any definition I don't see any bokeh in this shot, and I think I'm not alone in that perception. Google 'bokeh' and have a look at the other images in this challenge and you will be well prepared for the next bokeh challenge.

this shot is mysterious and alluring at the same time. your title is very fitting to the shot and whatever the actual object is, you did a very good job capturing a part of it and making it into a sort of whimsical way.

There doesn't seem to be any real bokeh here to speak of...?

nice b/w conversion - shallow DOF doe not necessarily equal bokeh

the whites are too blown out. I would have loved to have seen a bit more focus. Nice black and white texture though!
