Shining Through the Mist

[Christopher Miller]

I created this blur in PS using one of the photos that I've taken back in the woods behind my house. I had applied a texture overlay to darken the image, added light rays, and converted it to sepia. To create the blur, I then applied two motion blur overlays. Any comments and suggestions would be most appreciated.

Hi Christopher

Like the curtain effect. My first thought was, "Only the Shadow knows"

Certainly OOTB

Nice image and application, Christopher.

My only possible suggestion would be to possibly crop the right side to bring the bright spot off center. But ...

Your image ... your vision.

Christopher, This does have a spotlight and a curtain effect. Nice mood and zoom created.

I was thinking the same thing as Mark - get the spot light out of center and I think your composition would be even stronger. Neat technique here, Christopher - I like it very much.
