| Cool photo! Good amount of detail at the sand level (which happens to get his eyes as well. It does have a little feeling of artificially added blur, especially along the top of the hole in the upper left. |

Seems like the blur has been done in post-processing, not by using a shallow DOF. I wouldn´t mind that much, but it gets a bit distracting that the sand gets sharper on the edges. But I like the little fellow, especially those crazy eyes.
Added comment: realizing that this is really the effect of a DOF and not post-processing this becomes quite an interesting picture, because it plays tricks with your mind. My criteria in rating this challenge is whether the DOF actually adds something to the picture, rather than just being a side effect. Since in your shot it does make a very unique shot, with an extreme focus on the eyes he is sticking out of the hole, I upped the score. But it is a shot you have to look at a bit longer than most of the others to realize what´s going on. |
