Hey everyone! Thanks for submitting your photos last week. This week's theme is "soft", a kind of open category to demonstrate the concept of soft.

Nikon Z7II - Venus Laowa 100 mm f/2.8 2X @ ISO 400 f/2.8 1/13. Approx. 1x. Stack of 20 photos.

MistySunrise3

A misty sunrise on the road to Massena, Iowa.  (Early morning, heavy fog, wind turbines, bicycling into the sunrise.  Soft and a bit drippy.)
