however it looks like that iconic marilyn monroe photo where she was wearing a white haltered dress with the skirt billowing from a strong draft from a street grate. still not as impressive, but i wanted a post for the challenge. so there.
i think it's kind of cool! and yeah, i totally see marilyn in that shot... makes it cooler still! the "in camera impressionism" thing kind of mystifies me... i've played some with ICM or intentional out-of-focus, but it's definitely not something i understand well...
I like that you're experimenting and I think that the result is really nice. The rose against the dark background works nicely and the 'swirling' focus is very creative.
I am impressed! I love it and a fav! It is like Monroes's dress! And a spiraling shell, and someone twirling in a skirt from above.....apparently, from the favs and comments, others were impressed too!
