This is an orange hibiscus, back-lit by the sun. Focused on a distant object, and then took the flower.
I was going for an impressionistic view, so if nothing is recognizable, it is intentional.

In this challenge I was looking for something in focus to act as a counterbalance to what might have been in focus instead. So for the ones totally out of focus, I'm looking for an intriguing scene. This just makes me think of photos that I have taken, where I tried to get a macro shot and just got too close lol. For this scene, there isn't much capturing my attention except for the color. 5

Certainly meets the challenge, but it does not really engage my interest any.
