Fog Makes an Appearance at the Amusement Park



No:  My camera is not broken! 

Unfamiliar with this special-effects technique?  Called by several different names, "blur technique" or "blur" is deliberately blurred.  I use blur and other "special effects" to obscure identity and to make a dreamy or day dream perspective for the viewer, however; the viewer does not and should not strain to see what cannot be seen in these images and that is, individual details. 

You have the impression similar to a painting or a watercolor technique that represents the image with haze or fuzz or blur.  Art photography is different than conventional photography because it combines two or more types of art forms, photography and painting like aspects are seen in these images.  The blur creates the impression of an abstract painting. 

Stayed tuned for additional development at this site and elsewhere.  Thank you for your interest in this leading edge, hybrid photography!  Follow me on Twitter and Facebook (access is available on this site) as well.
