intriguing photo, may I ask if the blur is 'natural' (i.e. due to DoF) or 'artificial' (i.e. 'Photoshoped')? thanks...

Charlie Mac Bell It's natural, but it's not only DoF. The photograph was taken with a darkening filter in the evening of a rather cloudy day, and it's a long exposure. Even though my model was lying on her back and completely relaxed, she was shivering a little from the cold, and also you can see the wind affecting the branches next to her... ;) Thank you for your interest!

Robert Jurjevic thanks for explaining the blur, I haven't guessed that she was lying on her back, it looked to me as she was leaning against a wall, the mask reminds me of a Venetian type of a mask...

Charlie Mac Bell It is! Brought it back on my knees in the airplane to preserve it... ;) Thank you again for your interest.
