This was an image from Week 16. [link] was the photo I used but I actually like this one much more. I didn't use it initially because the focus is too soft for my likings but I posted it on FB and it had a good response so... here it is! Once again, I love the effect the sunlight through the tree branches gives. And I'm wearing my boyfriend's jumper which makes me love this photo a whole lot more. Stealing boyfriends' clothing is one of the great joys of being in a relationship.

I'll be interested to hear what you think of this, particularly as I've pointed out the soft focus. Does it detract from the image for you? Many photographers use it deliberately. I admit this was an accident I attribute to how damn hard it is to shoot self-portraits but I'm now curious as to its effects.
