Zoom Blur

I was so impressed with Paul's photo @steampowered yesterday that I thought I would have a go at zoom blur myself. Hope you don't mind Paul. Not trying to steal your thunder because your pic is much better than mine.

Anyway, our modem on the desktop died today and we had to buy a new one. That was after talking to our IP for ages to find out the fault though.

I connected to the Internet through the laptop on the wireless modem and because we have bad reception here the damned thing kept dropping out.

I tried a few times to look up on YouTube how to do zoom blur and finally got it figured after a few drop outs and a lot of rude words. This is the result. Quite pleased with it for my first try.

Check out Paul's though it is much better than mine.

@happypat Thanks so much Pat. It was hard work learning how to do this because the Internet kept dropping out when I was watching the tutorial. Hopefully all fixed now though.Only one more hiccup with the computer and we should be all set again.
