I still struggle with need for a photo to be sharp, tack sharp for it to be any good. I realise this is a hang-up that I need to get over.
This image did not start out as a blurry assignment. I did get the image tack sharp but something about the softness of the out of focus image appealed to me so I played around with a range of depths of field until I found one I really liked.
To me this image carries the 'promise' of something new and exciting just beyond its horizon.
