    Little Red Barn or Tool shed ?
    I came across this structure in Leesburg, Va. I was surprised to see this soft type focus appearance to it. What do you folks think ?

    By the way folks, there was a little more softness added to the shot...

    Hey Nina,
    I like the feel of this with the soft focus, The colors are great and I dig the way the barn/shed is somewhat hidden behind the branches and shadows. Normally it's not a good idea to center the subject, although this is not completely centered, it works here . I like it. You say you were surprised to see the softness to it before you added focus? Sounds like it did't come out sharp to begin with, but you turned a negative into a plus by playing on that and adding more softness to it. i like the effect.
