30 Uses of Blur in Photographs

Blur is one of the most important aspects of photography. If you blur your subject, your photo probably won’t look very good. But if everything is sharp in your image, you might not have a good depth of field. And for objects in motion, blur can be essential to show it.

Blur occurs when an object is not in focus, either due to motion, or due to being too close or too far away from the focal point to be captured in detail.

In this post, we’ll look at some of the various ways and effects that can be created with blur in photography:
