Sharpness is a bourgeois concept
– Henri Cartier Bresson
So many people here are obsessed with the idea of sharpness and a sharp image without blur.
Why is that?
slight blur makes it more interesting.
Ellen von Uwerth is known for her slightly blurry images and she prefers some motion and life in her work.
the great Lillian Bassman often introduces lovely blur and grain and blown out highlights in her images.
“There is nothing worse than a sharp image of a fuzzy concept.”- Ansel Adams
Yet here, people seem to jump on the perceived blur and make much ado about how one can hold the camera steady. People are unwilling to push photographic conventions and see what they can do.
Post some of your favourite blurry images that you took.
To be honest, it's been way too late since I've taken a truly blurry shot on purpose.
