You either like soft focus or you hate it. I really like the technique as a change of pace. Here I used it to help soften the look of my bromeliads and give the entire a glow. They now have a dream like feel to me.
Canon EOS- 1D, EF 100- 400 mm L lens @ 210 zoom setting and tripod no flash. My exposure was 1/ 60 sec. @ f/ 6.3 ISO 320.
Hope you like the effect. It's not for everyone.... ______________________
Me too! Another way to get this is to over indulge in noise reduction...it will give the same soft feel in most cases.
I like your comp (although I find myself wanting to see more of the greenery below) but I also think this would work well as a vertical. Great aesthetic feel to this Charlie!
Hey Charles,
Very nice mood captured here and this just has that nice soft feel to it......which I am not very good at capturing......but I am trying! Agree with a bit more on the bottom perhaps......but still captured very nicely.
