Imperfections

Today I am letting my guard down. I selected an image that I have overlooked many times. It's out of focus and blurry and it makes me dizzy. But what in life is perfect?

This picture was a result of experimentation. I usually shoot at wide apertures, but I wanted to try something different. I never thought I would post it, but here it is, imperfections and all.

If anything, this is what it would look like to be lost in a forest somewhere. Clear defined shapes begin to falter and become fuzzy. But maybe this is what it looks like to chase your friend through the woods? As you run, you scan the trees for a moving object and they begin to obscure into each other.

It's not a picture of beautiful colors that you lust over, but it does seek attention in a different way. It's mysteriously engaging.
