Bit of a long hot walk, so found a spot for a spot of refreshingness!!
Cool little waterfall and I am enjoying the spray!! 😁
We had a visit here to walk and then swim at Wadi Shab in Oman. Amazing and beautiful place..
Almost a two hour drive from Muscat, then a boat ride before setting off up the amazing Wadi following the water until we came to the area where we changed and then paddled and then swam to a cave!
The male spectacled (or Andean) bear of the zoo of Basel swimming in the pool in his enclosure.

So, the topic of the day seems to be ‘deliberate blurring’.
I personally prefer ‘natural’ blurring. This is performed by using a long shutter speed and a tripod and then allowing nature to provide the blurring part. (Obviously) I really have not tried this technique too much. Here are a couple of my first attempts.
The picture with the trees was performed by moving the camera up and down while the shutter was open. I have a feeling that this is one of those techniques that takes some practice to perfect. In fact, most of my [test] shots from this particular snowy day in the woods ended up either evoking a severe case of motion sickness or some really bad memories involving wayyyyy too much tequila! =^P lol
If you do enjoy this type of photography, I urge you to check out the photo stream of my Flickr/GRIPS friend. Here are some of my personal favourites from Karen's gallery:
Hope Y’All are having a really swell weekend. =^D

A nice cool shower at the beach. The hot weather here continues and it promises to be a scorching summer
On the 1st of March 2008, 90014, still in one`s 'refresher' livery, albeit now unbranded, is working the 12:30 Norwich-Liverpool Street, and is passing Kelvedon a few minutes late.....
"Cube" was an art and interaction project in our park, where people could design or `fill´ raw 2 x 2m cubes (you see the strips of wood) with different material or with any kind of performance. The common subject was about to reflect kinds of needs, personal and social needs and to try to `materialize´ them.
"We can never have enough of nature. We must be refreshed by the sight of inexhaustible vigor, vast and titanic features, the sea-coast with its wrecks, the wilderness with its living and its decaying trees, the thunder-cloud, and the rain. . ."
Henry David Thoreau
Taken after tornadoes hit North Carolina. Drove down to the site to help clean up the homes that were destroyed. Inspiring moment for the work that was ahead.
One of the most beautiful places in the Rhodope Mountains to spend a hot summer's day - the "Slivodolsko Padalo" waterfall canyon near Asenovgrad. The highest waterfall at the end of the canyon measures impressive 50 meters ... but the small ones along the way are just as pretty and refreshing.
Just press your snout and you have water... happy pigs.

From my archives - January 2005 in NH. I'm uploading this because, well, it is 100F outside and this looks incredibly refreshing today (whereas, yes, at the time it looked quite chilly).
I wish I had a real macro lens; the EF-S 55-250 f/4-5.6 IS doesn't cut it for real macro shots, but it does sort of work as a semi-macro lens...does anyone have a 100mm f/2.8L IS USM Macro they'd like to donate? ;)

Decided to test maximum shutter speed, and flash as i have pretty much never used the flash before :P
