The option to not postwork is always there.... there's never been a rule that said you have too or not have to (except for this months challenge). :~) Some people do it some people don't as par for the course... it's a personal preference as far as I'm concerned.... The only real rules we do have is that all the work must be your own (from your camera), and with no 3D embellished into it or clip art type stuff or tubesie things... Other than that pretty much anything goes, I guess.... I was very nervous at the beginning of this month, but I agree Nilla this month was really nice indeed! And there were a lot of entries... Personally I'm going to throw my vote for "soft focus" ... although if this were what we did my preference would be to see this done in camera and not with blur filters... not sure how others feel about that...? So Soft Focus for me......

I am, therefore I create.......
