You know how i feel about retouching the photos, my technic is simple, some sharp, saturation and contrast, but on this one i decided to make a diferent thing, i have lots of dificulty on portraits of people, so i tested on this sheep!!, i used the gausian blur to outfocus around the sheep and then added some vigneting to give that lomo style, and a little crop, so what do you think?

my selection for the month antoine barbot (fr), with only 21 years old antoine takes processing to another level, or should i say sublevel, some kind of darkness is always present on his work, like something lurking from a corner ready to catch us, i feel in his work that i'm seing a dark and sinister movie.

The very bold processing does not detract from this being a rather fine image in the first place. Certainly looks different and a technique to keep in mind.

Great colours and composition. Your model's pose is lovely too :). Good job on the PP. I am too lazy to try such things :):):)

Oh meu amigo. está perfeita. A moldura fora de foco está perfeita e dá uma sensação de que estavas a espiar o animal.

Lovely idea. I like this shot. However, for my personal taste the blur is a bit too heavy.

@tom: thanks tom, i guess you're right.
Eu pessoalmente gostaria dela mais ao natural. Mas mesmo assim, a ideia de estarmos a espreitar até que é uma ideia interessante e original.

o desfoque nas margens está excelente. E devo dizer que a perspectiva está muito original! Excelente!
