life in a blur

As a photographer, clear, crisp photos make me all warm and fuzzy inside. BUT, in my photography class at school, we're learning about a photographer (shame on me for not remembering his name) who is famous for his un-focused, blurred out photos.

At first, I wasn't too keen on manually focusing my lens to purposely blur an image, but something about the fuzzy effect of the images reeled me in. I have a new love, folks!

Do you think you're going to try this technique? Give it a shot, you won't be sorry :)

P.S. My heart goes out to all of the victims of the Newtown shooting, and their families. Nothing like that should ever happen, it honestly makes me cry when I think of all of those young lives lost before they barely began. Keeping them in my prayers.
