    Another straight out of the camera blur, except for levels adjustment, of some cattails that were past their prime.

    Thanks for looking. Comments and suggestions appreciated.

    Nice flow to this Cheryl, I like the soft color palette and the background layering.

    It does have a good flow & energy, Cheryl, and I like the mellow tones of color, and how the blend into eachother. Very nice!

    I just started trying to do some blurs, finding that it is a lot of trial and error, but fun to try something new.

    Another lovely blur, Cheryl! It has a nice flow but there's one area that keeps pulling my eye because it seems to disrupt that flow. There's a horizontal blur towards the LLC that could use some cloning work. Fix that and IMHO, this nice image will be even stronger!

    Cheryl, this is lovely. I like the amount of blur and the little bit of springtime green that is visible in the background. Very nice!

    Cheryl, great to see you posting more! Nice organic blur with layers of color behind. I'm really liking your blurs!

    Very nice Cheryl, just enough blur to still make out what the subject is. Nice blend of colors!
