At the Beach

Day one of ONS8 - soft focus. It was as still as could be this afternoon. I took several photographs of a group of three in and out of various water transports. The afternoon light and still water made the lake fade into the sky so that the horizon literally disappeared for awhile.
I hope to start catching up over the next few days. I appreciate your comments on my thistle and alien bug - read each one and smiled at several of the alien bug comments!
For those who haven't created your album cover yet, still time! http://365project.org/discuss/themes-competitions/22986/album-cover-challenge-33-begins#post-reply
Looks like fun! Great composition!

Woooops, saw the other and thought the dog would be a soft focus subject and here is the actual entry! Such and interesting composition as it looks like two "other" things are out in the water beyond the two discussing their water transportation!

I am drawn to soft focus pictures. There is a warmth and a feeling of watching from a distance (maybe just my old eyes). Going to watch this with interest.
