Rina, how did I miss this! I LOVE IT! This is wonderful, flawless use of artistic blur. I think our dpc community hasn't quite learned to fully appreciate the beauty of this type of art, but I give this one a 10!
Rina, this scored pretty well. Clearly there is a market after all for this type of image on DPC! I agree with WeJay, ignore the low votes. Go to say, I'd love to be able to achieve this look (intentionally at least!). Well done!
Wonderfully done picture. You got very good scores too, if you see from the overall voting patterns. My view is this that you can ignore the 5 and and below for this picture and continue to take this technique to your next level. The graininess and the slight framing improvement, are the only thing that might be considered for improvement.
The mood, the elements (beach, birds, sea, girl, waves, sand) and the stillness of the motion that you create in this picture is simply wonderful!
Tough bickies?? You crack me up! I love this shot. And the fact that it is indeed perfectly focused is what prevents me from being able to do work like this! Oh, and that having an ocean nearby which kinda helps. :) This did well - congrats!
I'm a sucker for these long exposure beach shots ... waves, gulls and somebody running, all blurred into an overly-sweet charm. It's like visual Abba music, and I can't help singing along every time. This is an especially good one.
I wonder if you are getting hammered for this image because it is blurred? I love it. I find it to work wonderfully with this type of image, the blur shows all the movement in the freame. Really well done with a soft flow to it.
miracles of the long exposure. this photo well deserve a longest comment. from compositional point of view is perfect, the child on the the left thirth line,the horizon on the first thirth line. colour: the choice of the blu is perfect, the light vignetting add something to the image and focusing my attention on the animated scene. the sea waves,the gulls seems a paint on the image and his reflections in the water is great. the garment in motion of the children is a little jewel it delete the children as person and it transports her in a dream.
I can only imagine that you will get "hit" for this being "blurry, out of focus", whatever...this is a wonderful image. I just love the movement of it. Very nice. 9
Very free spirited. The inclusion of the birds and the echo of her clothes with the wings and the waves really give this image depth. The tones work well to convey peace. well done! 9
Great abstract. I love the use of a longer shutter speed. It adds a great surreal effect. It probably won't go over well with lots of the voters :( That's ok though because I like it and that's what matters, right? :) :) :)
