Gorgeous Michael! How'd you get the soft/luminous effect? Love the color and comp too. #4232613Michael Garth April 30, 2007
Dianna~Thanks for taking the time to look and leave your nice words.
A technique I play around with sometimes is to use a slow shutter speed and during the exposure, slightly turn the focus ring. Of course, you will need to be in manual focus mode. At first it's hit or miss but you start to get a "feel" for it. Although, it's always somewhat unpredictable. thanks again.
