Holiday Blur

There is a photo magazine called "JPG" that dedicated an entire issue to embracing the blur. I was always fond of the painting with light concept and here are a few of my interpretations. Long exposure + blurry on purpose = Happy Holidays!





 The source of light for the above images mainly came from this present.


Lastly, the quintessential ornament reflection shot. It's like a make-shift fish-eye lens without the expensive price tag of an actual lens. It's genius! Happy New Year.
