Looking at this again, I'm really sorry I didn't give it a higher score. :( I think it needs a little more contrast to make things pop, but subject-wise, this is just brilliantly creative. Fantastic photo!

I'm really starting to think that if I love a photo I'm cursing it from scoring well on this site. I'm sorry I love your photo!

Exceedingly underrated - excellent choice of DOF and impressionistic OOF elements.

Nice use of blur. Good detail in the foreground.
Post actions
I like this, the use of blur here is something I don't think I would normall care for, but I think this give the tobacco leaves more personality.

Much stronger on second pass than first, for me. A lovely effect, great control of DOF, real old-timey feel to the light & color. 8 from me.

I dont really like the DOF here!

Interesting choice of focal point... you can make out enough detail to see the farmer... though I wouldnt mind seeing it with the farmer in focus, just to compare.

Oh I love this! I haven't seen such beautiful bokeh for quite a while, and I LOVE that the subject is enveloped in it. Your choice of border is wonderfully complimentary to the image. The greens, the browns, SO beautiful!
Post actions
What an interesting image. I really like how you've chosen the subject to get into focus. The background is perfect DOF. Well done.
Post actions
different focus...very interesting...had to study the shot some...it is appealing in colors and tones as well
Post actions
This would be a great study in shallow dof if there was a bit more of the tobacco in the foreground. I liked the extreme blur of the background.

interesting selective focusing, I like it, 6

Nice tones, good exposure, and an interesting use of out of focus elements. I like it!

Nice bokeh, makes the shot very painterly.

Nice tobacco colored photo. Great use of the DoF.

almost looks like a painting

I think it would've been more interesting if the man was in focus. Nevertheless, I like the colors :)
Post actions
I like this unique picture. I think I would have liked to have seen a little more of the front row that is in focus. But I still like it.
Post actions
Interesting choice for your DOF & focus point. It's such an interesting shot though, I'm not sure you needed to go for artistic...

Interpretation of Topic: Very Creative Idea...So True
Post actions
Different use of shallow DOF.
Post actions
Really love the arc of the water, the balance of the shot horizontally, the colors. The focus on the foreground reduces the quality of this shot for me.

i would have had the farmer in focus than the foreground crop

great use of selective focus.

Interesting environmental portrait

Interesting choice of focus. Nice image overall.

Cool perspective, I like our depth of field its something different.
Post actions
Now this is an interesting choice of DOF. I'm not sure I would have thought of it myself, but it really works here.
Post actions
Very nice. I like the concept. I can see this on a physicians or engineers office wall. Congrats.

Nice shot. I like the OOF person which makes the plants the main subject.
Post actions
Interesting shot and use of DOF. I like the different perspective here.

I really like your chosen depth of field in this.
Post actions
Interesting choice of focal point. The colors are very light which is good. The composition is a bit bland.
Post actions
Execution of this image is without fault, but the subject isn't holding me.
Post actions
I like this and overall it works for me, but not so much the focus. It's not that the main subject is out of focus, but that the foreground leaves are. If the whole thing were blurry it would have a nice painterly effect.
Post actions
I really like the DOF you chose to use here. It really works well.
Post actions
Nice use of DOF. Well done.
Post actions
Interesting concept, but the small area of focus just leaves this one looking like a blurred image.
Post actions
Love the use of DOF here. Well done
Post actions
excellent creative use of focus

Really like the perspective and how you've uniquely chosen the subject and background.

I really like this image. The choice of focus works well for me; it surprises me & then I like it.

To blurry. I like the subject matter but just cant see it well.
Post actions
I love your choice of DOF for this shot. It certainly wouldn't have been the same without the spray from the hose.
Post actions
Interesting choice of focus

Know its a subjective choice, but would have preferred the subject in focus, but do like the use of a constrained palette.
Post actions
interesting use of focus, works nicely
Post actions
interesting image, too much out of focus, in my opinion
Post actions
i like this impresionist style photography, thanks for sharing.8
