Challenge: Distracting Elements (Advanced Editing VII)
Collection: Portfolio
Camera: Canon EOS-500D Rebel T1i
Lens: Canon EF 75-300mm f/4-5.6 II/III USM
Location: Westonbirt Arboretum

 The 2 distracting elements here are the foreground blur obscuring the leaf partly, and the hole in the leaf. I actually think the both add to the shot though, so do they really count as distracting? We shall see!

Beautiful! While the hole in the leaf is a little distracting the blur is an enhancement that I would fall over myself to achieve.

Is blur distracting? The imperfection surely is. Nice colours too.

I really love this, to me it's not distracting b/c I love blur, but I'm sure it will be to others. 8
