22nd Annual Smithsonian Magazine Photo Contest Artistic
Focus on Distance: Bokeh and Depth

The photograph features a plant in the foreground, standing out in clarity and detail, while the rest of the surroundings are blurred with a soft, dreamy bokeh. As the eye moves towards the background, the other plants or elements fade into a beautiful blur of circular light shapes, creating a sense of depth and perspective. This focus on the plant in the background makes it the visual center of the image, while the softness of the foreground adds an ethereal, almost dreamlike feel to the scene. The natural light subtly highlights its details, creating a striking contrast between the sharpness of the plant and the soft, bokeh-infused surroundings.
