Challenge: Blurry Mess (Basic Editing)
Camera: Olympus Stylus 770 SW
Location: Brunswick, Maryland
Date: Mar 10, 2008
Date Uploaded: Mar 10, 2008

The lighting is simply natural through hugwe windows behind me. My friends were just messing around trying to do matrix moves and I just captured the moment. The purpose was just to have fun, make it so you know what's going on, and meet the challenge of being blurry. (It was on plan old camera mode hence the OoF blurriness)

I so made that point when we trying to find a place to take it.

I'm lost. What's BHS? It's a department store here in the UK.

Blurry, but it doesn't do anything to capture motion since your background is also blurry. Nice try.

I would have liked it better without the posters, good action shot, pressing a 7.

I understand it's a staged shot but if the smaller child had been the one kicking the bigger, it would be more effective. This just looks like bullying.

Feels more OOF than blurry. Creative idea though!

The background adds to a chaotic feel to this and the action is good but I'm not entirely sure the blur adds to the shot - mostly it just looks out of focus but not necessarily on purpose if that makes sense.

A good concept, but a longer shutter speed would have introduced a sense of movement into the shot.

The blur looks like it's due to being out of focus rather than movement. I'd like it better if the blur was caused by movement.
