This one was a total accident, I was wearing some gloves so with out the dexterity I didn't tighten the tripod head. What you see here is movement over a 30 second exposure.
What a cool accident. I can't wait to see TripleYYY's response this is Y's cup ot tea!
I think I prefer #1 here. I think it makes the streak more a part of the shot. With the higher contrast it seperates the leaves from the streak more, so that it looks like 2 seperate shots rather then one.
Very very cool shot! I think my preference would be somewhere between the two. On screen, the first looks very nice. However, it might appear a bit flat in print. The contrast will help the print a bit.
Well I almost missed this one. But with OOF in the title, I had to look.
I love happy accidents....when they turn out like this.
The first one has nice pastel colour, the light streaks are nice....almost like shooting though a thin curtain or with light rays.
The second one, has a bit to much contrast for my taste. However it makes me think of adding a texture layer to the leaves. So this one works on that level...although I would have still used a little less contrast so that the texture is not quite so over powering.
Nice miss, as we say on the golf ourse . I like the contrast of the 2nd shot better. It looks like a double exposure of the leaves and some canyon rock.
