I really likes this image, the mood. It shows this peaceful countryside landscape with these gentle rolling hills that are all dressed up in vibrant wildflowers and lush grasses. In the foreground, you’ve got these clusters of white lady’s lace and purple flowers that are hanging out by two rustic wooden posts, all tied together with a simple strand of wire like they’re holding hands—so cute, right? The hill is a beautiful mix of sunny yellows and fresh greens, creating this gorgeous tapestry of color. And there’s this solitary tree in the background, just chillin’ under a sky that’s brushed with light pink and purple hues. Honestly, the whole scene just radiates a calm, pastoral vibe and really captures that tranquil beauty of nature in full bloom!
What do you think about this post? Should I do more similar posts of not-so-sharp, focused photos?

I vote for impressionist version
Vote counted 😂
I like the impressionist outcome.
I will add your vote to the list
I like the original. It’s slightly out of focus but still a beautiful landscape. Don’t we all feel out of focus sometimes?
Anne, I am always as I am nearsighted
😍
Beautiful images Ritva, and yes.
Thanks Brian

Your ‘impressionistic ‘ treatment really captures the mood. Lovely – but so is the original. Both please!
The colors, the mood, and the edit are perfect. I look forward to seeing more.
Both versions are beautiful! The contrast between the yellow, green, and tan against the grey clouds lend the landscape a fantasy vibe on its own, but the impressionist edit highlights that atmosphere even more by making the scene feel like an illustration.
I particularly like the second-last image. The definition makes the scene pop a little more.
I understand what you are trying to do with the impressionistic one but somewhat love the reality of the original . . .
