Came across this article which makes interesting reading especially for those wondering about composition and focus. Interesting articles all through site I recomend the one for using a grey card too.

And every one said, 'If we only live,
We too will go to sea in a Sieve,---
To the hills of the Chankly Bore!'
Far and few, far and few, Are the lands where the Jumblies live;
Their heads are green, and their hands are blue, And they went to sea in a Sieve.

i was just thinking of making a whole page full of unsharp pics, they sometimes comunicate feeling better then sharp ones, and you have the thought they are unsharp because the subject was not allowed some how, censored by chance so to speak lol.

great article, richard! Yes, knowing what to have in focus in your image is so important...as is knowing what to shoot. :)

Much of this goes back to ones "definition" of photography. The shot above by ysvry is a good example of non-focus and in that thumb shot, it works well for me. Very good link...thanks.
