Intentional Blur in Nature

This one is definitely the winner. Between the stability of the forest floor, the blurred trees and the gorgeous soft pastels colors, I find it exactly what I had been hoping for. I wasn't sure if I'd know the winner when I saw it but that wasn't the case. This stood out. Gorgeous photo! Now please explain how you did it!

The mood of this photos is spectacular! It's not as blurred as most photos submitted but the shutter was just slow enough. I'm waiting for the trolls or hobbits to come out of the woods! The light coming in creates a softness to it that is wonderful.

I love how this photo is simple yet complex at the same time. The colors are great and you know it's of the woods but still not sure how. It could have been done accidentally or intentionally and it just doesn't matter. It's artistic. Abstract and so cool!

I love this photograph. I love how deep into the forest your eye can see and the wispy nature of the trees. The sunlight streaks top it off nicely. It's great how you can take a group of trees in a monochromatic scene and transform it.

I think this is a great representation of how intentional blur makes what could be a simple shot (and still great without blur) into something really different. I like the motion in the water in the center left area and the color is great. Wonderfully done.
