Blur in photos can be good

This image was created by the widely used photographic technique of long exposure. This technique is commonly used at night time to show light trails of stars or car lights, and normally requires a tripod to maintain sharpness. Here the technique has been exploited in daylight and without a tripod to blur movement and soften sharp edges to produce an image somewhat resembling an impressionist painting. The only post processing is the tweaking of colour and contrast.
