    These guys were moving up and down the beach at Cape May on Sunday morning. After trying with limited success to get a sharp BIF image, I decided to try my hand at an intentional blur before calling it quits. I haven't posted here before but figured this might be considered OOTB. This has almost no PP other than cropping. I tried a pano crop, and various levels and saturation adjustments, and I have one other shot where the species is more recognizable, but think I like this abstract one best. Thanks for looking. Suggestions, C&C appreciated.

    Bill, Big welcome to OOTB! Great first post. I get a good sense of the beach and the birds along w/ the feeling of motion. Really nice soft color pallette. I might take a tiny bit off the bottom if it were mine but you really don't have to.Very nicely done. I'd frame it!

    I think Denise, Jersey girl that she is, summed it up perfectly... beach, ocean, birds, motion. It's all there. Very nice, Bill.

    I like the blur effect you got here. I think maybe boost the contrast.
