Walk the Dog (30 days of blur)

Comment by timfythetoo:
This one didnt really do much for me. Where the first image had a flow and primary subject that was rewarded by it, this image is just a bit too busy for me with out any real impact. Had the background been missing the car and building (next time see if you can get them torn down before you shoot) and we had just been left with the dog and his owner the image could have been much stronger. AS is though the man kind of blends in in a not so good way with the vehicles and the lines from the blur on the building end up distracting. The first image works well as a blurry image because it benefits from all the aspects (lines, colors, flow, contrast) working together to provide a somewhat cohesive subject. This second image just feels more like a quick snapshot that was taken out of focus. (from the blurgeois thread)

This shot drew me in from thumbnail. I was drawn to the lines and colors first off, but it was the overall texture of the shot that kept me the extra bit longer. It almost feels like you could reach into the screen and touch it. That it would have hard underbody to it but also an almost furry soft touch on top as well. Like most of the pictures I prefer here there is a flow and movement to the shot that is very appealing. I may have tweaked the blacks to make them just a bit more prominent, but overall I enjoyed this image very much. Just enough blur to almost make it abstract but not enough to totally hide what the subject matter was. (from the blurgeois thread)

Comment by Wink:
Fitting tribute to this hard working little critter. The glittery wings and wing/petal lines, bokeh and complementary colors all come together nicely.

Love the color and blur of the flower pedals. The BG bokeh sets off the in focus bee perfectly.

Comment by Germaine:
IMNSHO, this is what bokeh is all about. The blur accentuates the detail in the insect and the part of the flower he's sitting on. Neat shot.

Comment by Bruce_the_Robert:
I'd love the pigeon to be a tiny bit more to the left, leaving the frame, escaping from that chaotic background, from the light and shadows that grip it and try to hold it in place for your photo. Delightful feel here.
