Congratulations to the winners!

Congrats to our winners. You can check out the next critique/contest at Fstoppers.com/Contests.

Rules & Prizes

For this next critique, we want to see images that use blur to create a mood. This includes blur created from movement or depth of field. 

Standard portraits taken at f/2.8 probably won't cut it for this critique. We want to see unique photos that are enhanced by your decision to add blur. Remember, to write a quick paragraph about how you took the image and how you chose to use blur to create the final image. 

Each photographer is allowed to upload at least 3 images and images without a description will be disqualified. The highest-rated, and one random image will be given a free tutorial from the Fstoppers Store

wow...what is wrong? I don't see people complaining about rating of 1 or any suggestions for the next contest...anybody out there?

Ironically, it does seem like the 1 star raters are out in more force during this one. I'm seeing a lot of images that clearly have some skill and effort behind them which have average ratings below 2.
