The challenge for you is to take focus into your preferred direction. There are many ways that you can take this: in focus, out of focus, a look of focus on someone’s face, you name it! Let your creative minds wander happily and keep your focus on the theme!

Although I love photography, I am a hit and miss kinda gal, and if I get a decent shot, it’s usually more by luck than judgement.
In today’s age of digital cameras and magic, you can tweak and enhance your photos whereas when I was a young girl, a lot of my 24 film shots were out of focus, people had their heads chopped off, or I had nice pictures of the inside of my pocket or my handbag.
However, there is one picture that is out of focus but amazingly haunting for the poem I wrote for it way back in September 2016
How many years have they watched things grow
From Summer’s sun, to Winter’s snow.
Shadowy Sentinels, the guardians of waters blue,
Embracing Nature patterned in morning dew,
What have they seen from day thru night,
Mysterious secrets of dark to light.
That’s such a cool photo!
Taken from the lounge window on the boat at Comberton Quay.
The perfect image for the mystery of the poem. I guess sometimes a lack of focus is exactly what’s needed.
I was really pleased that t worked so well.
Great poem and picture.
Thank you
A pleasure!
I wonder what all they would have seen indeed. The photo is hauntingly beautiful, Di. ♥️
Thank you.
Outstanding writing… I love the picture and your poetry, such a lovely combination!!!
Thanks Beckie. We used to stop there often on the way to and from Stratford Upon Avon when we had the boat. It was so peaceful and quiet.
It really looks peaceful and quiet. My kind of place! LOL! 😊
There was room for two narrow boats and three small cruisers, but most times there was just us.
