Day at Golf.

Hi guys,

I have had my camera for about 2 weeks now and I am learning a lot ,
What you guys think on this photo after PP on Elements?

I makes my eyes wonky, so I guess it worked!

Wow, I keep staring at this photo and it's like it's moving. Cool.

When it comes to editing your photos, it should serve a purpose.

Honestly it could've been done without the blur. It gives me a headache looking at it.

Your picture is of a golfer who's at the end of his swing in a pretty much static position. The blurring effect conveys rapid movement. My brain tries to put those 2 things together and it just makes it very disorienting.

Now if you were to have a close up picture of a golf ball in mid flight with that motion blur, I can put those two things together.

I love golf and any course you go to, there's a photo op waiting to happen. This picture I think would've been just fine without the motion blur. I'd like to see the length of the fairway, the trees surrounding it, and the bunker in the distance.

Sooooo much better without the blur.

Didn't even see those crazy chunks of rocks with the blurring effect. That's pretty neat!

The original is nice, but the one with the blur makes me keep going back to look at it. It's quite a fun shot.

ok wow , well thanks for the replies guys , this critique forum aint too bad , I was expecting everyone to tell me how terrible they were!

Thanks for the positive replys will post more soon

The blur is interesting, but you should also blur the green grass between his calves. It looks odd since this isn't blurred.

Agree! The first one was making me feel dizzy

It makes me dizzy too, but it's kind cool also. Different...

I'm dizzy.

That's a good way to put it Flo. Mine too.

I like both, first one is pretty trippy and second one shows more detail. It's all up to you how you want this photo to be viewed by other people. Nice Shot!
