The soft focus seems a bit overdone to me.

Fantastic impressionist painting feel. Great colors, There is really not much wrong with this photograph. I like the overcast darkness of the shot. The blurry softness seems like a post processing effect, but its still awesome.

Great picture. It is to soft. I know what you were going for, but you didn't quite get it. the pic would have been better without it.

Not a fan of soft focus but it's an interesting technique for a landscape shot.

That fence will certainly allow freedom! And it makes for a very appealing image too. The photo has a soft dreamy feel which to me isn't a great fit with the subject. With just the field I'd prefer sharper focus and a cooler color. Add a couple in nostalgic clothing romping through the field, and this treatment would probably work well.

This is awesome- sometimes blurring looks kinda funky but this is gorgeous. I like the broken fence and the range of colors. This has such a rustic feeling. Great job 10

The foreground looks muddy, but not blurry. Maybe levels adjustment would help.

I like the soft effect you applied to this shot. I think it might work even better if you brightened the original a bit and boosted the saturation before blurring. Still, nice shot.

I really like the painterly quality of this image. Me, I would have cloned out the house in the distance as it throws off the 'wide open space' feeling. The house makes it less free, if that makes sense. Good job though on an otherwise beautiful photo.

Love the soft touch to this picture. I am a sucker for the soft focus on a picture!
