Our Assignment for Week 14 is to INTENTIONALLY produce an image that is OUT OF FOCUS.

Digital Photography School has a link to get the NONfocus juices flowing:
13 Examples of Great Photos When Being Out of Focus Makes the Shot


(Pictures for week 14 competition to be taken and posted between 20091004 AND 20091011).

NOTE: We have two Seasonal competitions planned for the last two weeks of year two. You may take pictures for these anytime between 20090705 and the posting dates of 20100704 or 20100711. This way you can include your favorite holiday or season whenever it occurs during the year.

Rules:
1. Anyone and everyone who is interested in eligible. The goal continues to be
have fun and share comments, concepts, insights, and techniques with fellow
Pentaxians.
2. Each week will feature a Theme and Sub-concept for you to explore.
3. Post your single picture in Project 52-2 thread for the week. Explain what
motivated you to take the picture and/or how you feel it represents the weekly
theme.
4. Some post-processing is OK (adjusting white balance, exposure, color
saturation), but let's try to stay away from heavily PP'ed images here. Try to
keep the creativity to photographic techniques and the captures themselves.
5. There is one “Theme Concept” labeled “black and white,” but feel free to post
black and white, sepia, monotone, etc., for any of the other themes.
6. The picture you post should be taken during the week in which the theme is
active to be eligible for judging.
7. Any picture taken from 20090705 to listed closing date is acceptable for the
two “Seasonal” competitions – Projects 52-2-51 & 52.

Nice Corey...that Philly smog sure can create some nice blur.

Here's mine this week, some reeds blowing in 40+ mile per hour winds mid-week. Stopped down to f/22 and shot as slow a shutter speed as possible to capture the motion in the wind.

Just got it today. Play with my 5 yrs old at the park.

I will be starting the judging process sometime today and should
have the results later, or tomorrow morning.
