Added a soft-focus look in PS, sometimes it works, sometimes it

doesn't. Do you prefer a sharp, sharp look, or a soft feel like

this one?

I had to comment wilson. I pop in on occasion just to look at Top rated photos. I have not commented or done anything because of my "ban". Seeing, however, that these fellows still display my work against my wishes, I thought I might slip in a comment on a TRP of a friend.

 

Great job! The soft look is quite nice. I woul dlike to see it in the sharp rendition, but my instincts tell me that I'd prefer it this way.

 

Well done!

While I like the softer colors here as well as the array of lillypads throughout the water, I personally feel this is not balanced effectively enough. The windmill and the flowers both being on the right side is perhaps the main reason in my mind. The upper right of the stream is also just too soft here...looks a bit muddled. The soft focus does have some merit in this situation, but I still believe a tack sharp version would be the superior image. You've had some great success hand holding in the past Wilson. Do you have a tack sharp version here as well? Over-all I think this has all of the ingredients to be something special, just not quite there yet in my book. Aloha Braddah Wil! 5/6
