Out of Focus


I was paging through the pile-up of glossy garden magazines this evening, and noticed that a great many photographs are not in focus.  Most of these are shots over a distance - looking down garden beds and over the property.  What has happened to depth of field?  Is this an editorial decision, to purposefully use photos that are just a bit blurry?  Or is this a byproduct of digital photography?  Does this mean that slightly-out-of-focus slides, and the not-as-crisp-as-the-slides scans, are now acceptable?  

Do these “fuzzy” photo bother anyone else?

cleaning my glasses,
