Comment by Melethia:
I didn't vote the challenge. Probably would have been an average score from me (6) because while it's a good shot, it looks a bit fake to me, as though the blur were added in post. Water to the right and left of the dock should be in focus somewhere, to my eye. And the overall effect is that of a bit of that miniaturization thing that goes on with blur - looks like a little toy dock plopped into the water. All that said, beat the crap out of my score, and I'd be delighted with a 6.

This among my top scoring entries. An appropriate evocation of the theme with an effective use of DOF (or selection PP blur?) to highlight the subject. Kudos.

I can only think that there are people who aren't big on blur - which is why I would have loved a comment or 7 from those folks. Smack me down if you need to, just tell me why.

For a holy man, Father Bellow has an infernal imagination, as you will discover in his latest thriller. Will Jimmy be able to ring the bell before he is silenced forever?
