Shallow depth of field but dead on focus thus not "soft". Nice Shot though - 5

Nice picture but it does not lend much towards seeing the soft focus.

The subject might look more depressed if his gaze was downward a bit. Nice use of shadows around the face.

There is no soft focus here. Soft focus has a misty character with the edges softened and bright areas turned like fog. It results of light difusion before the lens. This picture is only using a shallow DOF.

I like a lot the picture but I'm not sure this is a soft focus ... I don't rate for the moment.

This is very good. However, the distracting blown highlight on his nose pulls the eye away from an otherwise excellent portrait. Good luck anyway.
