    I normally post in the Avian forum, but there weren't many birds out today so I tried my hand at some pleasing blurs. Camera and lens mounted on a gimbal head. Panned vertically during the exposure.

    Comments are welcomed and appreciated!

    Hi, Miguel, welcome to OOTB Blurs are one of my favorite things to do and I like these a lot, especially the second one because it looks like it has more depth to it. I see you're from Gainesville. I live in Micanopy and driving back from Gainesville today on 441 I found two different spots that I wanted to come back and do some blurs on the grasses along the Highway.

    For your sake, I hope it doesn't take bad bird days to make it happen, but I hope you post some more blurs. Despite a similarity in some of the colors, the two are quite different. I like both but favor the first because of the way the colors fade into the white at the top. Nice work.

    Lovely colors and translucent quality! I like both. In the first one, I wish the green grass blade that does all the way to the top just left of center either tapered off or became lighter. For some reason, I find it distracting. Very pleasing images.

    Thanks for all of the comments. I have a couple more that I will be posting, and I hope to continue taking these as I find them, well, quite pleasing!

    Miguel, Number 2 for me too! I love it. The image has so much depth and I love the spring green color.
