The subject for next weeks competition is .....
'OUT OF FOCUS'
ENTRIES ONLY ON THIS THREAD PLEASE.
We all strive to get our shots perfectly in focus with the details pin sharp. So this week, let's go against this photography 'rule' and do the complete opposite. Despite your photo being out of focus, it should still retain enough shape/form/definition so that the subject is still identifiable.
For clarification:
* shots with a narrow depth of field do NOT count
* the entire photo should be out of focus
Have fun :)
