cool dof effect. i think if the foreground was in focus, it would be a better picture. i know you know this, but try a bigger aperture and see if there is a difference. cool pic nonetheless
okay, you did the reverse of what I would have done - put the emphasis on the background and not the foreground. My eye is a little distracted by the blurriness up front. However, this is a good submission for this particular challenge.
i like the effort here - the colors on the other side are pretty and well lit but there are some issues on the railing with regard to pixelation and noise that make it seem a little muddy
