Out of Focus

It was a cold and rainy September morning near my house in West Hartford.  
The high school students gathered at the corner to wait for the school bus.


I took a photograph through my hydrangea border.
My focus was a "fail" but the image was not.

City Daily Photo bloggers today will be showing out of focus images for the monthly theme day.

    The focal point seems to be the red umbrella.

    Looks more like some photoshop effect to me. Rain is never much fun.

    This is very nice Jack. It looks a bit like a watercolor painting.

    This photo is so interesting. Love the umbrellas and the flowers - and then that splash of golden yellow near the base of the tree on the right.

    I agree with Sharon, it does have that watercolour effect.

    Maybe a bit out of focus, but a great image of daily life, Jack.

    This picture turned out great Jack! I would settle for cool and rainy here. It has been dry and hot for several weeks.
