Perfect job on the soft focus. I also like how you composed/cropped this. A very restful capture. :)

Actually I changed the camera's settings to make the focus softer in an attempt to hide noise etc - and this is the result.

I totally agree with Dorys's comments. This looks like a true soft focus and not a softening in Photoshop. Whichever way it was achieved, it's perfect. --Garrett

Thanks Dorys. She was sound asleep when I took it and didn't stir a bit. Her face when she saw it posted in challenge was a classic.

What a sweet picture. The lighting is nice and the focus is spot on yet soft. Perfect for this shot. Did she know you were taking her shot?
