Photo of the Week - Week 35

This week's photos focus primarily on one of the new features in Photoshop CS6 - the blur tool.

Here is the final photo:

And here is the image I began with:

EXIF Info
Shutter Speed: 1/80s
ISO:100
Aperture: F/8.0
Focal Length: 50mm
Lens: EF50mm f/1.8 II

The blur effect is most noticeable if you look at her hair and also at the collar of her shirt.

In this case, I used the iris blur, modified the shape and turned it a little bit. I liked it for this image because it helps bring more attention to the eyes and face.

I also used the content-aware tool to touch up a few other minor things in the image.
