I like the colours but feel this is not really soft enough (IMHO)

There is no soft focus here. Soft focus has a misty character with the edges softened and bright areas turned like fog. It results of light difusion before the lens.

Great colors, but I don't get the feeling of soft focus, just the use of DOF.
