I do not even know how I ended up here, but I thought this post was great. I do not know who you are but certainly you are going to a famous blogger if you are not already 😉 Cheers!
Thanks for your post on this website. From my own experience, periodically softening way up a photograph might provide the digital photographer with a little an artistic flare. More often than not however, the soft blur isn’t just what you had under consideration and can often times spoil an otherwise good photo, especially if you consider enlarging it.
Ridiculous story there. What happened after?
Good luck!
