_DxO_PS.jpg) Also a larger view. Feedback on this one has pointed up another way I might learn to "see" with this lens... |

Very romantic view of the world. It shows up in your use of a "dreamy" bokeh and fuzzy textures of the plant. Even though it looks like a superimposition of the plant on the background taken from another photo, the result is rather pleasing. Nice image to illustrate either fall or winter time.

Oh yes, romantic, dreamy... the softness that works on all levels - the forms, the light, the color, the background. The bokeh makes the impression of a crowd admiring the light on the plant. Love that!
cheers

Do you look at or through a photo?

Ted, I got lucky with this image. The camera showed me something I had no idea was there, and it was very fun to explore the scene. Now the trick will be for me to continue to learn to see in that way, or to recognize the possibilities, with that lens.
You remind me of Andreas' commitment to use only one lens for a good length of time, especially when he's working with a new one. Note to self...!

You got lucky you insist... Yeah... yeah... yeah.... I'm reminded of Gary Player who was endlessly practicing pitch shots one morning and increasingly getting them into the hole when a bystander said, "You're pretty lucky today."
And Player responded, "Uh-huh, it's eerie, the more I work at it the luckier I seem to get."
