    Default Kalanchoe blur

    This was taken of a kalanchoe in my yard before the winter. I placed a piece of red cellophane over the lens to slow the speed down and create a dreamier effect.

    1/6 sec., f/8, ISO 100

    Thanks for looking:)

    Nice idea Cheryl-it really does give it a dreamy look. The flower is still recognizable. Nicely done.

    I like that the flowers are recognisable too, Cherly. Interesting idea putting the cellophane over the lens. It certainly created a lovely dreamy effect:)

    Nice effect, Cheryl. I like the dreamy look and your choice of complementary colors for this composition.
