The angle makes this very interesting. The gold and blue are beautiful complements to each other.

I didn't catch what those were at first. They look like little eggs. Interesting combination!

What is the red in the mouth? I don't feel this fits the theme of a missed focus. This seems to be more of a great DOF shot since the dog in the foreground is in focus. I really can't tell what was "missed"? 6

In this challenge I was looking for something in focus to act as a counterbalance to what might have been in focus instead. So for the ones totally out of focus, I'm looking for an intriguing scene. I see one here as I feel the Canadian Geese are always good for an interesting shot. The glow spots are odd tho. 6

This is a really cool long exposure shot but it gives me no indication of what an intended subject might have been. The only thing I can see that might have been cool is the shadow of the horse in the reflective mirror. I think I'd like to have seen a tighter crop to give that more emphasis. 6

This just makes me think of photos that I have taken, where I tried to get a macro shot and just got too close lol. For this scene, there isn't much capturing my attention except for the color. 5

Here, I just see something OOF with nothing else to capture my attention. It doesn't make me think much beyond what I see here. 6

This doesn't fit into my definition of a missed focus. I see a great DOF shot with the frog in fairly good focus. And the color pops out so well too. 6

Behind every cow...

I can't stop staring at the background. The light on the rocks is fascinating. I hope you got another shot of that without the OOF cow lol. Fun shot, fits the theme well. 8

I don't feel that long exposure counts as a missed focus, especially since it look almost like a panned photo. BUT the swirly legs and bodies make this look really cool. 7
