Acceptable Error?

I promised Ann an out of focus picture so here it is! I decided to play on the theme, as per the shot
below, but wanted to emphasize bokeh and decided not to have a focal point. Photographically you'd
have to question it's merits, but I quite like it. This is pretty much out of the camera, just my
standard raw 'workflow'. An acceptable error?

I like it Dave.

I really like this image,Dave.It is very creative and proves that you don't have to have ANY part sharp to make a very pleasing picture! I think the unity of colour in this one is so strong!

Love the colour and tones, very nice in an abstract sort of way.

I like it too. Makes a very pleasing abstract.
Guest 21-Nov-2007 14:23
Yes, very acceptable. My wife, while looking over my shoulder, said "Wow, I like that!" as soon as she saw it.

Very acceptable in my book...to me it's perfect & I love it ~v

I can identify with Dan! ;o) My eye is drawn to the clump of berries/flowers on the left as a focal point... the colours are great - I like it!

I think it works as a really nice abstract. Looks better than some watercolors I've seen. I love the lighting and tones.

Thank you Dave - This really is quite lovely, the fact that there is no focal point leaves your eye free to wander and take in the tones, shapes and colour. It also leaves your imagination free!! Art it certainly is.

In the size of a screen saver, and staring at it, you could find a lot of peace in there.......

Had laser eye surgery a few years ago
but looks like I need another round!

Acceptable to me. I quite like it. In fact I find it very artistic. v
