Olympus OM-D E-M1 Mark II

Haven't had the camera out much the past couple of days and felt like I've been slacking in here, so on the way to work this morning at 4am it was dark and raining. Sometimes I'll grab a shot for fun with the traffic lights and reflections ... so, figured I could get something "blurry". :-)

The "blur" shot is, eh, ok (not really). Started messing around with it and did a little flip & blend on it to get something a bit more interesting. :-D

They either work or they don't.
Unlike other forms of photography, I find I'm all in on one side, never in the middle.

Just back from Paso Robles. Here's a quick edit of one of the many blurry images I made down there.

Well, with one day left in this side challenge I loaded up a few this evening. Had a nice sky for a background to work with.

Thanks Marion. Appreciate it.

I do like how this one came out ...

and I'll never be able to duplicate it (or any of them for that matter).

Left a comment on yours. I think I'm still dizzy! :-)

Sorry, I got distracted trying to get ready for the first music practice in five months ... didn't exactly mean for this to turn out blurry ... :-)

Thank you all for participating. It can be difficult to sustain these side challenges.

If you played in the Creative Blur sandbox please feel free to post this badge in your profile. Sorry, it's nothing fancy. :-)

And that's what makes it fun. Keep playing everyone.
Thank you Barry for running this side challenge. Always good to get out and wave the camera around.
