Wow, I'd never seen that before. You're right, we must have been in pretty much exactly the same position.

The highlights are clipped in a few places but I didn't think it detracts particularly. I'll have a play when I get some time and see if I can recover any detail and post up the results.

The idea with the depth of field was specifically to have it just a little shallow rather than sharp all the way through as I thought it added a little more of a sense of depth and added a slightly dreamy quality.
