    Default Zinnia blur

    Minimal processing so this is pretty much how it looked out of camera.

    I just took 60 or so shots and while this was one of my favorites, most seem worth keeping. It's not easy to cull these things!

    Lots of spinning, circling, zooming and zig-zagging was going on this morning. :)

    Ken, I love the dark moody look to this and the vibrant colors really make this a winner in my book. Nicely done.:)

    I agree it is not easy to cull these blurred images:). Each one seems to have a color/shape personality of its own. These deep colors are beautiful with the brighter pink/purple one catching your eye just enough to anchor the entire image. The framing is a nice touch.

    Ken, I like the motion and colors a lot. And the framing really set it off nicely.

    I like the feathery look and the colors against the dark background. I might boost the mid tones a bit to bring out even more color. Very nice!

    Pretty shot. I like the saturated colors against the black. I also think you picked the best orientation.

    Ken: Great image! Love those vibrant colors against the dark bg. The diagonal lines with a bit of a curve are just right. Well done.
