honestly... it doesn't look too blurry.. pretty kewl really in the high contrast b&w, outfit & pose! :]
not sure what's going on with the boot & the border though, that may be a bit "smeared"? do like how the bed's edges are softened too

Okay.It definately doesn't look blurry to me either.It looks fine.I like her outfit as well.It's a cool portrait with her posing like that and the tones are beautifully balanced. So I say go for it! :)

Hush now, this isnt too blurry at all Kimmie. It looks to me as if you used the sharpener-tool on her face...is that correct? I honestly dont know where thats coming from, that you think its blurry i mean. I think it looks really perfect. One thing i would suggest though is that you lose the dropshadow on the photo itself. And it would have been nice if that outside edge had a line at the top as well. Very nice photo it is Kimmie, and you have no reason at all to doubt yourself. I know too well though how easy it is to do so. I bet we all do that every once on in a while. #:O)
How come we say 'It's colder than hell outside' when
isn't it realistically always colder than hell since hell is
supposed to be fire and brimstone?

It's not blurry on my comp either Kim but it definitely looks postworked a lot and quite unatural. I mean, smudging did occur here right? U know I don't like when u do that to ur pics but it's just a matter of taste! It's not blurry though, that's for sure! ;)

This picture isn't technically perfect... But, the blur on the bed, the strange effect on the face... make all of it looking old ("vintage"), like the girl looks. So it creates a mood that works well in that case. I think we feel the sharing between Kim and that girl, at that moment, and in my opinion it's definitly more important than technical performance... It's not a picture for advertising !

hmm.... I'm jumping in here late. Whatever you did in the Gallery post was purrfect. What a wonderful reason to carry around a small camera!
