Freelensed Wildflowers II

Trying a different kind of in-camera impressionism ...
This photo is freelensed, that is, the photo was shot with the lens held up to the camera body, but not attached to it.
By manipulating the position of the lens, I created some light leak, and got
soft focus on the main flower, and a dreamy look to the rest of the image.
Straight out of camera, no edits of any kind.

Thanks for explaining, Peggy, and I do like the very soft effect you got. It's just right for a floral. Good luck with this favorite.
