Default Fortnightly Competition Midnight 9 Jan to Midnight 23 Jan - Shallow Depth Of Field

Having racked my brains to come up with something challenging, I gave up! No, only joking. I have gone for something that I really enjoy and that is taking an image with a really shallow depth of field.

I would like to see whatever subject you choose, out of focus apart from one small focal point. Choose a subject that will benefit from this technique and experiment before making your final choice of an image to enter. Most of all, have fun. Good luck and enjoy. Make the 1st comp starting in 2014 an inspiration.

Fortnightly Challenge is open to all members of WPF. The challenge will be run on (GMT) time.

Post your photo in this thread any time from 9th Jan midnight to midnight 23rd Jan.

Then a 3 day poll will be placed in this thread for voting on the photo you like that most meets the brief.

Please give your photo a title.

The winner picks a challenge for the following fortnight and starts a new thread... in case of a draw the majority of members are happy with the 1st entry to start up the new challenge, which saves us having to do another vote.

1. One photo per member
2. To be taken during period stated above
3. The photo must include exif data with date and time
4. Post your entry as one attachment directly in this thread
5. No discussion of entries in the thread
6. Do not post any entries in the gallery until after the voting has finished

To create a poll :
* go to top of thread and in Thread Tools press 'Add a poll to this thread'.
[note: only the starter of this thread can see this option.]
* In the update options box change the number 2 to how many have entered.
* In each box put the title of the entered photos.
* In close poll, put 3 days.
* Submit new poll.

I have been a little naughty choosing this as I want to play with my extension tubes! One perk of getting to pick the theme.
