^ MikeAUS, those 3 shots are great! Perfect for the "Sharpness is a bourgeois concept". They are images that are enhanced by the lack of sharpnes not just out-of-focus garbage. Well done!

"Sharpness is" has always been my favorite thread at RFF. Whether by design or accident, beauty in distortion is the abstract art of photography. I love it.
