Wish You Were Here

An intentional, in-camera blur created at Fort DeSoto, just after sunset. I am amazed that the sea oats give the illusion of passing cyclists.

Shawn, I think that's one of my alltime favorite blurs! Beautiful image and you're right...I never would have guessed those weren't cyclists!

Nice! I like the result here. Good colors, interesting image shapes, and intrigue!

Nicely done Shawn,
I like the motion...:cool:

[Joanna Trescott]

Well done. I thought it was someone walking on the beach. Nice composition and colors.

Creative to the Max Shawn and they do look like cyclist !!!

btw might have gone wide open and lowered the ISO?

[Fabs Forns]

For a moment I though this was Viera Wetlands. Very creative.

Thank you everyone, for your kind comments. Alfred, next time I will keep those adjustments in mind. ;)
