If you look closely, Malcolm, the background IS blurred and so is the very near foreground. What is different from the previous shot is the dramatic change from blur to focus at the subject.
Looking at the Exif data for both the main difference is the zoom factor - this one says 260mm vs 160 on the other. Whether that makes 'a haporth of difference' perhaps someone more technically skilled t ...

I can understand what you were aiming for, Nigel, but IMHO (and ir is just my personal likes/dislikes) I feel that the very slow shutter speed has made the water look like cotton wool :?
As I said, it is a personal thing but I prefer the effect from using 1/20 sec as Gabby has in the next image. To me that gives the water a more lifelike appearance :?
But, each to his own and we all have ...

I would love to know how you have shot / processed this one! The young deer is pin-sharp, but nothing else in the shot is. Have you used some blur and layers to emphasise the main subject?

Nice one Malcolm :D
Best regards

Nice set

I haven't got a clue of what processing you've used but it works. Great shot! Paul,
1/. Quick selection tool
2/.Image > adjustments > black & white.
3/. Filter > guasian blur.
Thats all. To misquote
