 My favorite girls, Sheila(wife) and Tucker Rose(daughter) during a random photo shoot at Francis Park and Rose Garden. Cropped, adjusted levels, brightness, contrast, saturation, usm and then gaussian blur to give it a peeking in kind of feel.

Dude, we need to get you a camera with a few more million pixels. Love the soft focus effect on the foliage, but you don't have enough detail in the girls (main subject) to make the soft focus pop. Awesome composition with a subtle framing that works well for me for this challenge!

I like the construction of this shot, just the overdone 'soft' effect puts me off.

I would score this higher, but it looks way over-processed. It's too flat, theres not detail

can't put my finger on it, but something looks artificial about this.

to me, a bit too soft. A bit of contrast would have helped.

I like the soft focus here, and the framing is nice. Saturation is a bit dull, more yellow in the leaves might have helped.
