I took this photo some time ago at Emu Park. I was looking for something with horizontal lines to blur in Photoshop. The figures were selected first, and then the blur applied to the rest. I rather like how much control there is in this method in comparison with intentional blur in-camera.
@777margo@onewing Thanks. I have been doing a course with Kathleen Clemons called 'Painterly Photography" (or something like that) through CreativeLive so she has been putting all sort of ideas in my head.
