This time I was using camera movement for impressionistic and abstract effects. And one more multiple exposure with fewer exposures. This one is 3 to 5 exposures.

Love the abstract likeness of #2 and the Monet type of painterly effect of #3

...it's like nailing JELL-O to a tree!

YYY,

Your abstracts are beautiful. I like how you have trying both vertical and horizontal camera movement in #1 and #2. I expect that different viewers would appreciate one more that the other simply due to personal preferences. I also like the painterly effect in #3.

Thanks guys.

I am finding with the lensbaby and the multiple technique that there has to be a spot that isn't quite blurred, but still has the painterly effect. This is difficult to do, but the results are much better....for my tastes anyway.

The camera movement technique, I think I would like to see a bit more LB effect around the edges. Not sure that will be possible, but it will be a challenge to find out.

Rich, I tried circles too, but that turned out to busy. I think all art comes down to personal taste.

Thanks again Glen and Rich for the comments.

These are really interresting, I like the paintery effect of #3 most.

#2 Really appeals to me and #3?--Definitley Monet!!

All 3 are very nice. #2 is very strong.

Sorry its taken me so long to get back to this post. So little time in a day. sigh!

Thanks Shurla,Crabby and Joby. I really do appreciate the comments.Glad you like these shots. I hope to work more on these techniques soon.

I think you achieved a good result by adding the camera movement technique. It made the image look more abstract and impressionistic.
