For this week's Macro Monday theme - "in camera blur/Intentional blur". Took me ages to find a food that I could spin, and then...
SEVENTY FIVE SHOTS this took me, I know that's child's play to many but I genuinely don't think I've ever taken that many photos for one shot in my entire life...and probably never will again!
Lighting set up (and the cool spinner rig that Andy made) in the comments.
The southbound City of New Orleans leaves the old Illinois Central depot in Ashkum, IL in it's dust as it barrels south.
Wanted to take an image with a blurred Big Ben but then have the branches in perfect focus. In hindsight I should have swapped the two.
George Mears, then the master bell founder and owner of the Whitechapel Bell Foundry, undertook the casting of the Big Ben bell. According to foundry records, Mears originally quoted a price of £2401 for casting the bell, but this was offset to the sum of £1829 by the metal he was able to reclaim from the first bell so that the actual invoice tendered, on 28th May 1858, was in the sum of £572.
Transporting the bell the few miles from the foundry to the Houses of Parliament was a major event. Traffic stopped as the bell, mounted on a trolley drawn by sixteen brightly beribboned horses, made its way over London Bridge, along Borough Road, and over Westminster Bridge. The streets had been decorated for the occasion and enthusiastic crowds cheered the bell along the route.
The bells of the Great Clock of Westmister rang across London for the first time on 31st May 1859, and Parliament had a special sitting to decide on a suitable name for the great hour bell. During the course of the debate, and amid the many suggestions that were made, Chief Lord of the Woods and Forests, Sir Benjamin Hall, a large and ponderous man known affectionately in the House as "Big Ben", rose and gave an impressively long speech on the subject. When, at the end of this oratorical marathon, Sir Benjamin sank back into his seat, a wag in the chamber shouted out: "Why not call him Big Ben and have done with it?" The house erupted in laughter; Big Ben had been named. This, at least, is the most commonly accepted story.
Cools Pond Vernon BC Canada. Wanted to get the full moon through the trees. Got slightly results. Personally I love the mishap
Sometimes life is a blur... not just its speed but its character. It's often illusive in meaning and yet everyone clings to it as though it's the last thing on earth.... hmmm... maybe it is.
I suppose living in clarity is the key... but then, where would you find a great bokeh? LOL
From now on.... I'm just saying "my life is a bokeh" instead of "my life is a blur"... :) It makes it sound so much prettier.
Hope you like the abstact shot. And if you don't, I'll delete it and send it back to my camera. Cheers!
A photo taken at the organised chaos of Shibuya crossing, Tokyo. All the pedestrian-lights turn green in all directions, and thousands of people start to cross the streets in all directions. Pretty cool to see, and nice place to play with long exposure photography without using a tripod :-DD
Have a nice day everyone!

One hot afternoon we drove to the top of the Lake along the Pier Millan - Chinkapook Road to a point where we could view the dessicated end of the lake. The colours were gorgeous, with pinks, greys and whites which I have blurred. The blur is also expressive of the need to wipe flies from ones eyes, mouth, ears and even the camera view as they swarmed around us all. How farmers and the animals put up with this I do not know!
Not always easy to get a good "Intentional Blur". Tried a lot of moving things, and the hardest was a drop falling, getting is perfect was not easy. After spilling a lot of water (and patience) this is the best I could do. But thank you Janet for this theme, learned something new (again).
The hot exhaust gas from one, blurs the image sharpness of the other two. Patrouille Suisse with their F-5E Tiger II jets, at RAF Waddington.
Nightcliff, Northern Territory. A 30 second exposure with 10 stop ND filter about 20 min after sunrise. A Gaussien blur applied from horizon and upwards.
For the Macro Mondays theme of Intentional Blur I took an image of the dof gauge on a lens as it focused. Image taken on a Nikon 1 J5 with kit lens which was then heavily cropped.

Two more intentional blurs are shown in the first comment below. Which do you prefer?
HMM! Thanks, as always, for stopping by and for your kind comments, awards and faves -- I appreciate them all.
