In the woods is a quiet place that is almost magical. The only sound is that of the rushing waters and an occasional bird. This image is part of my soft focus series. It is taken with a Canon f2.0 Soft Focus Portrait L series lens. The wider the aperture the more the soft focus is noticeable. This was shot at f-4 for 8 seconds using Fuji Velvia.

Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes. That way, when you criticize them, you are a mile away from them, and you have their shoes.

No offense to any of the other excellent photographers/artists on caedes.net, but you have to be my favorite. Almost every picture of yours that I see goes straight to my favorites. Another 10/10 and into my favorites, which is getting to be the norm for your pictures! Another amazing job!

Newest Work: Kingdom In The Sky.
This picture is awesome. You have sparked my curiosity though. You say you use a soft focus lens? I haven't come across this before. It sounds like it is a special kind of lens? Is there ways to do this type of thing with out a special lens?

"Dance like nobodys watching"!
Well, you have hidden another one on me. This came up on the front page. It's gorgeous. From the view count, it's been around awhile too. This site is too vast. I can't keep up with it. Beautiful colors. I'm not a fan of the slow speed water effect, though. Still, it's a keeper. Ring up another sale!

Cameras are like people--sometimes they lose focus.
