Blur: Weekly Photo Challenge

Posted on April 3, 2015 by Sandra

IMG_1485I wanted to experiment with a black velvet backcloth to try to get a better picture composition.  Have you seen the price of velvet??  I had to make do with black fleece in the end.

DSCF1626OK, I had a little help from the Edit function for this one.

DSC_0006God only knows what went wrong with this one, but I rather like the effect of the leaves.

This week’s challenge was ‘Blur’.  To see what others have blurred, either purposely or accidentally, visit Weekly Photo Challenge.

About Sandra

I used to cruise the French waterways with my husband four or five months a year, and wrote fiction and poetry. Now I live on the beautiful Dorset coast, enjoying the luxury of being able to have a cat, cultivating an extensive garden and getting involved in the community. I still write fiction, but only when the spirit moves me - which isn't as often as before. I love animals, F1 motor racing, French bread and my husband, though not necessarily in that order.

    The first photo looks mysterious. Is it 3 bases or 1 with reflections? I like it very much. The photo of the tree has a beautiful blue color. Nice selections for the challenge. 😃

    I have a lot of blurry photos of my dog Reggie on my phone. I should enter those in the photo challenge. 😉

    Good photos to demonstrate a “blurred effect.” I especially liked the first one. 🙂

    The first photo is sensational, I really love it. How did you take it? It should be sold as wall art.

I'd love to hear your views; it reassures me I'm not talking to myself.
