The art of the Blur

We didn't have the greatest weather today, however a couple great shots came out of today's drive.

How did I get the Art through Blur....???

Creating  art is not always  our first instinct when photographing a landscape.
Here are a few tips and tricks on how you can create art with light and blur.
Panning was the motion movement that I used to create this blur.  By following the lines of the landscape, I did not work against the  horizon lines of the land.  I would call this almost painting with panning.

The technical side of the image :

  By using different apertures  it will allow you to play with the amount of light reaching the image sensor.  Ultimately, slow shutter speed photography is a fun way to take different, artistic photographs. It's not for portraits, or sharp action shots.

 Remember,  the longer the shutter is open, the more light that will be  exposed to the image. A slower shutter speed will create  interesting motion blur.   You cannot get that look with faster shutter settings. A smaller aperture or lens filter can prevent photos from becoming overexposed during the day with a slow shutter speed.
To produce these images I had an aperture of 32 as well I added a polarizing filter. 
 Capturing the essence of motion through the art of blur is something you should all try next time your out photographing. Is truly all about experimenting, letting loose and working outside the box.

The art of the Blur has been something that I have been working on for quite some time now.
Here are a few images of today's adventure.
