This image is so clearly picturing the dog and the focus is so clearly against it, that the result is puzzling and highly interesting.<BR/><BR/>I work a lot with shallow depth of field, seeing this as a very natural way of picturing things, but I can't remember any Andreashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15992874945092411553noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18928719.post-33164998639219943452008-12-01T15:25:00.000-06:002008-12-01T15:25:00.000-06:00It's funny how we sometimes need a gentle push in ...It's funny how we sometimes need a gentle push in a new direction before we realize how many new opportunities there might be in said direction.<BR/><BR/>Making changes and mixing-it-up, whether it works or not, must help get the creative juices flowing and perhaps where one finds no luck in a new direction, it will lead to something else that is more productive?forkboyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17901921831126341522noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-18928719.post-51773378864614433942008-12-01T14:09:00.000-06:002008-12-01T14:09:00.000-06:00I love this photo!

I'm tempted to turn it into my holiday card.<BR/><BR/>I also think it's a great idea to make more prints and also give people prints of themselves.
