Gulp!!!

Was going through some 2yr old Africa photos that needed to be deleted and saw this wild eye...used Nik Low Key and Classical soft focus

Unintentional Blur ....Ha.....First light near Kruger National Park, 10 minutes into the trip first day..

Suddenly this Water Buffalo decided to go somewhere in a hurry and went crashing through the vegetation....totally unprepared 7D AV 1/6s f/6.3 EV 1 ISO 800 100-400mm....do remember the adrenaline rush though

Steve, wonderful pan-blur! Sometimes the unintentional ones really stand out... the more I look at it, I like it! It certainly gives a sense of motion and just the head with its horn creates a dramatic impact. Wonderful colors and nice contrast with the bg. TFS.

Steve, I really like the sense of motion. The head with the clearly formed horn makes this a winner to me. Nice background and comp.

I agree with the previous comments; it turned out very well for an unintentional blur!

Now this is a nice blur, just enough detail, well done....I thought at first it was a fear blur, :tinysmile_shy_t: I know I would have been a Water Buffalo going by in a hurry.

many thanks for the comments and critiques...new term - the "fear blur".....about sums it up....and I did not drop my camera or my wife:cheers:
