Lost in the woods

Why else would you have sharp lenses, other than to be able to jiggle them

around. Your comments are most welcome, thanks.

Sharpness is so nineties;-)  Great moody image. I love the way the treetrubk kind of repeat themselves and how you have toned the photograph.

Best regards Jeff!

hey that pretty spooky.. i like it!

Your opening comment takes the wind right out of my sails.  Why indeed 'jiggle a sharp lens around'?  Everyone's 'artist within' is different but having spent many dollars on fine equipment to enable sharp crisp photos (and occasionally succeeding) I can't get my head around this technique.  A well known Canadian photographer, Freeman Patterson, went through a similar phase.  I wonder if boredom with many years of making sharp clear photos had anything to do with it?  That said, this one does look like the road home after a too enthusiastic night out at the local pub.  There are many among us (not you or me of course) to whom this shot would look all too familiar.  I'm guessing it would be a candidate for a poster in an anti-drinking & driving campaign.  So there, it does have merit!  Best, LM.

Thanks for the feedback, folks. It's alay appreciated.

Boeboe, I agree. There's lot of not sharp in most of my work.

Len, it's not boredom rather experimentation. I do it every now and then, particularly at this locatoin. Given that we are making art and not just a photograph, it doesn't bother me. BTW, I used a very expensive Arca Swiss Cube tripod head to let me move sideways and fore and aft at the same time.

Premium treatment!

dear jeff, one can not do better!! amazing shot! all tghe best, yours frank
