Intriguing funny big-eyed picture, Michael! This smiling creature is probably greeting you! Originally done! Bravo! Sincerely, Tatiana

The subject actually was a large sculpture of scissors, Tatiana. Aside from other pp steps, all I did was crop the image. Most gratefully, michael

Hi Michael,

 

the decisive factor here is that you 'saw' this image. I think there are many ways to execute and process this photo. You chose the tree to be in focus, the sculpture of the scissors as an OoF element and the background somewhat blurred. If this were my photo, I would probably have chosen the sculpture to be in focus, the tree relatively unsharp and the background totally blurred. I like the composition very much. Kind regards, Vincent
