The fact that there is nothing in focus in this really hurts the picture. If the tulips were in focus it would be an awesome shot!

I am a huge fan of the soft focus effect, but this just seems to be out of focus...

Sadly out of focus. And what's with the white edge on the right?

Nice shot, but a bit out of focus, and seems a little grainy

Sorry, but the blurriness has really hurt what's otherwise a nice idea.

this is just too out of focus and has too much noise for my taste.. its a good concept, but wasnt executed or edited correctly, imo.

Too blury

pretty, but very blurry.

Not sure whether the soft focus was deliberate or not, but for me thsi would have been far stronger if it had been sharp. Lovely colours and cropping though.

I'm not a big fan of the softness of the photo.

beautiful image, but it seems a bit out of focus
  Photographer found comment helpful.
05/03/2007 11:21:39 AM
could be nice, but the flowers are out of focus, IMO
  Photographer found comment helpful.
05/03/2007 06:48:31 AM
This is an excellent composition and framing.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
05/02/2007 01:49:25 PM
This is nice but it's just too out-of-focus for me. Just my opinion.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
05/02/2007 11:00:00 AM
the voters are going to get you for this one, it's out of focus...
  Photographer found comment helpful.
05/02/2007 09:04:51 AM
I think this would look very cool in focus. As it is...
  Photographer found comment helpful.
05/02/2007 08:44:58 AM
A nice strong image with bright bold colors, it just appears to be let down by the tulips being out of focus?
  Photographer found comment helpful.
05/01/2007 07:43:30 PM
oops. Focus problems. Also, the addition of the triptych baars don't seem to compliment this image. Keep trying.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
05/01/2007 05:22:19 PM
Intentionally soft or out-of-focus? Since I have no way of knowing, I'll have to assume it is unintentional, sorry.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
05/01/2007 02:32:24 PM
Blurry or soft. Nice colors though.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
05/01/2007 01:09:05 AM
Focus.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
05/01/2007 12:57:28 AM
Nice colours but far too out of focus.
  Photographer found comment helpful.

Blurring the frame with the photo is an interesting idea, but unfortunately I don't think the original photo lends itself to triptych treatment. Also, did you notice the thin white line along the right edge?
  Photographer found comment helpful.
04/30/2007 08:45:07 PM
Easy and soft!
  Photographer found comment helpful.
04/30/2007 08:35:19 PM
Its OOF sorry >.<
  Photographer found comment helpful.
04/30/2007 07:52:51 PM
would of been nice if it were sharper.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
04/30/2007 06:25:00 PM
This would have been realloy powerful if it was in focus. IMHO
  Photographer found comment helpful.
04/30/2007 05:40:12 PM
you have probably heard this b4, but REALLY out of focus. Focus is one of the basic principles, I cant see why you even submitted this, surely you had time to reshoot and focus properly.. silly silly. 2

The soft focus isn't working for me, and the triptych format isn't telling me a story or enhancing anything in the scene. Could be my lack of vision in interpreting this; sorry :-(
  Photographer found comment helpful.
04/30/2007 12:31:54 PM
seems intentional but so much out of focus here makes it less appealing.
  Photographer found comment helpful.
04/30/2007 09:53:13 AM
Your picture seems to lack focus
  Photographer found comment helpful.
04/30/2007 06:07:14 AM
Nice, even though there is no difined sharpness to it, I don't think I like the edges. the fact they are a bit blurred too makes my eyes hurt a bit and makes me think I'm just not seeing clearly. It really makes me think I need glasses, that focused but not focused feel to it. 7

great idea pitty about the clarity
  Photographer found comment helpful.
04/30/2007 01:18:21 AM
A bit too soft for my tastes. Having a third blossom would also add a bit more effect to the shot. (Not just because its a triptych but generally odd numbers have more visual interest)
  Photographer found comment helpful.
04/30/2007 12:53:17 AM
really cool idea, just a tad oof /6
  Photographer found comment helpful.
04/30/2007 12:25:54 AM
it's really quite blurry...perhaps you didn't save at the right resolution...would have been nice otherwise
  Photographer found comment helpful.
04/30/2007 12:06:27 AM
Sorry - but this is completely out of focus.
