I made this blurs during a trip last weekend to Rocky Mountain National Park. I am quite taken by William Neil’s and Alan Briot’s blur work, so when the elk stopped doing interesting things, I took a few moments to make these images. Note that the blur effect is created entirely in camera, not with software post-processing.  I really like the play of the light on the aspen boles in the first image and the great sense of texture.  In a perfect world perhaps the background would be less busy.

As always, click on an image for a slideshow/larger version.
