Did You Know?

Some photographers purposely blur their shots.

Description

This scene of a middle-aged woman posing beneath an umbrella like a bathing beauty from the 1920s in a large backyard could be bucolic. However, it takes on an eerie feel thanks to the blur and the odd highlights caused by the photographer’s use of flash. “The image I seek is of youth betrayed by age,” said Noggle, “of spirit so strong but fragile with time.”
