I shot this at ISO 1600 at 1.8, so there was some noise but the people were under a light so it was pretty bright. I thought of using this in the soft focus challenge. I converted to black and white using a gradient map and a selective color to adjust tones. I then sharpened it some and then ran gaussian blur around ten pixel on the small image and faded the effect. I am not sure why I made it so light. I thought the blur added to the romantic mood I suppose. :)

cowbell is loud and clear!
of course you could always have more cowbell.
I love the contrasting tones of the two poppies.

the overlay plays with the mind a bit, I keep thinking this is an outhouse in front of a building then I realize not so much.
