This is the fourth shot from my Deadwoods series, which looks at decay from a natural perspective, rather than the man-made regression that is my Everything Must Go collection of images.
This shot was taken in Cramlington park, and is part of a succession of similarly-styled images that will be uploaded in the near future. They were created for a college project looking at narrow focus and the actions of nature through the seasons (and years).
There are more examples to come in the near future.

I completely agree with *LaughingAstarael ; it definitely feels as though its immersed in water... it gives it a very dreamy effect.

Yeah, now that it has been mentioned I see it myself. I might change the title to reflect that, seeing as the one I have at present is pretty-much rubbish.

I'd offer up some alternatives, but my mind is only functioning at about 10% at present, and I probably won't be able to do any better.

That's all right, there're plenty more images to go anyway. Though it seems people might be getting bored of the same thing over and again, hah.

I like how this feels like it's emerging from water. Lovely effect.

That's the beauty of narrow focus and bokeh. I really enjoy messing around with the effects. :]

I really have no idea how the technical stuff works. All I know is that the end results are pretty much always amazing.

I'm glad you think so. :B

That's really nice, but maybe it would be better focusing a little more on the central part of the shot. However, it's great

I was trying to create a gradient from one side of the image to the other. I've some other shots that have the central area in focus, they'll be making their way to my gallery eventually. Thank-you for the comment, though. ;]
