The striped shirt works so well here. Very cool capture. |

from the pedagogy thread:
There's always that risk with a blurred shot that it will just look like a regular shot that wasn't focused (I'm sure some people feel that way about every blur photo). This photo gets dangerously close to that point for me. Instead of feeling like something new was created, it tends to feel more like something I already recognize but is trying to hide from me, for no thematic reason I can discern. What I do like about it is the violence of the camera shake lines. I think you have a good technique there and if you point it at the right thing you can have a great photo.
p.s. on reading your comment, I do like the stripes... perhaps if the composition emphasized them more... |

This one didnt really do much for me. Where the first image had a flow and primary subject that was rewarded by it, this image is just a bit too busy for me with out any real impact. Had the background been missing the car and building (next time see if you can get them torn down before you shoot) and we had just been left with the dog and his owner the image could have been much stronger. AS is though the man kind of blends in in a not so good way with the vehicles and the lines from the blur on the building end up distracting. The first image works well as a blurry image because it benefits from all the aspects (lines, colors, flow, contrast) working together to provide a somewhat cohesive subject. This second image just feels more like a quick snapshot that was taken out of focus. (from the blurgeois thread) |

Your eye is first drawn to the bright striped shirt, then you see that he's walking hig dog, and it makes the photo so endearing. I love it. A nice mix of urban and heartwarming :)
