just doesn't do it for me

This is obviously very bizarre and yet it has interesting points - for one what seems to be the selective desaturation and then the repetition of greens. The out of focus thing - I can't quite get with that. And I'm not sure if it's intentional or one of those stupid tries for brown ribbon - though I don't think so, since it's too interesting for that... So I suppose I have to decide how *I* like it and vote accordingly. 5

Normally, I like blur, but I don't think it adds much to this shot.

I like the way you have framed your subject. The green colors are also striking. This would be more effective if the window were in sharp focus.

Going for the brown?

the 'glow' of this is very cool -not sure it will score well but it sure is unique - 7

Hmm, I know the out of focus look is what you were going for, but I do not like it here...

Umm. I do like how the green really stands out. That is effective in that it gives the eyes something to be drawn to, but other than that, I don't find this shot appealing at all. If it is what you were going for, congratulations, it definitely "stands out" from the crowd.

Maybe this is an artistic statement but I don't get it. Totally out of focus.

The soft focus idea is good, but I think it's a little too far gone for me. There isn't any one thing for the eyes to try and focus on.

OK got to be honest and say that I dont get this at all, apologies if I am being stupid

You do realize that this image may have been way better if it were in focus?

Because it is so soft, I can not give an accurate critique.

As for the title, I am not even sure what the subject is doing, therefore, I am not convinced.

Try again, don't give up, do better.

Too blurry..but you have probably already been told that. Actually the blur and the colour together hurts my eyes.

Not sure what you're trying for here but I would prefere something in focus.
