Soft March Macro

These are very tiny little blue buds. Did several versions some with vibrant colors and contrasts
from the raw, but wanted to keep it soft. It just felt right with the natural light, and sometimes I just want soft with low light and contrast. Lately my posts seem to be low light and low intensity. Used the jpg and then DxO Fuji Astia to get that old time feel. Maybe tomorrow will post same or similar but more vibrant and contrast for my last of this 365 edition. Then who knows?

Nice shot Tom. Like the dof.

@davie Thanks Davie wanted it shallow, but not sure about the softness
and low light, I kind of wanted the feel of an old time photo or painting.

very good one, Tom. The details are amazing! The DOF is perfect and brings the texture on the front buds.

@deniseescovino Thanks Denise I just was not sure about the softness vs. more vibrant so your comments much appreciated.

Love the soft, pastel, dreamy feel here Tom - good decision I think. Last one tomorrow - many congratulations... But I hope a year 2 is in prospect?
