Maureen, it's a perfect amount of zoom Those look like lantana? I like the bits of purple with the yellow.

Hi Maureen, nice amount of zoom blur for this look. I like that we can see the underlying plant life behind the blur.

Maureen, a real visual trip. Very creative. Nice details in the shadows.............cool.

[Julie Kenward]

Oh what fun!!! Which lens did you use? I'd love to try this on my next voyage to our botanical garden!

After seeing this I had to go for a lesson in zoom blur and I am still amazed that you got the flowers radiating out from a center point. Great photo!

[Dennis Bishop]

The amount of zoom is very effective and I like that you cropped so the center of the zoom was moved up in the image. Very nice job of vignetting, too. You should be proud of this one.

[Maureen Allen]

Thanks for the comments.

Jules, I used my 24-70 on this.

Maureen, This came out very nice. I like the amount of blur and the positioning of the center point.

[Anita Bower]

Good job with this blur. I'm impressed that you did it in camera. I, too, like being able to see the flowers beneath the blur. The centered composition works well.

Awesome flower blur, Maureen! Just the right balance of blur and detail, great color and energy to this.
