Foto Friday: Blur

Our Foto Friday challenge this week is "blur," which really was really different for me. Intentional blur is something I've seen done, and I've seen it done well, but I've never embraced it in my own photography. I've been so focused (pun intended) on getting sharp, sharp images that I hadn't realized the artistic value in a little blur. It was really freeing, though, to step away from the quest for technical perfection and try something totally different: low light - check! - motion blur - check! - lots of grain - check! - imperfect crop - check!

You can see a larger version here. But only if you feel like it.
