Yesterday in the end of afternoon i went to my garden with the idea of making photos for my stock of the red cherry leaves fallen in the green grass.
I spent a few time trying to find beautiful compositions but after a few minutes i was bored just with the idea of such common images. That's not in my habit but that was my mind yesterday.
So i left the tripod and started to play with motion blur, just looking for nice colours and shapes.
With this kind of images, it's impossible to devine at shooting time what the final photo will exactly look. Many details can only be seen when processing the raw files on a serious display and may ruin an image you first imagine to be a keeper.
So, as usual in such case, i did many and many images, changing shutter speed, focus and the kind of movements i was giving to the camera. I also tried to blend some really blur photos with in camera multi-exposures. It gave some beautiful, colorful and very abstract images.
The photo posted above is the result of a single exposure. The blurred and textured effects are not due to any software manipulations but only to camera shake and a very slightly out of focus subject.

J'aime bien cette technique, elle permet de transcender l'art de la photo. On dirait une toile où une myriade de couleurs s'entrelace.
Hi Patrick:
As you say, no way to know what you have while shooting; the key is to be able to see it later, from a pure design standpoint, and decide what works and what doesn't. Obviously, you are very good at that second part. Another fine abstract.
