I wanted to try a new quest I have been wanting to try. I am not really interested for the optional quests. For this week I wanted to do the Beautiful Blurs quest. I had to choose 3 pictures I liked, and here they are.

I think these pictures would be a nice blur.

I started the quest and learned about the history tool.

Here is the picture before editing anything.

 

Here is the picture after the Light grain video.

This picture is after the Motion Blur video. Not much difference but it did remove the banding.

Finished with the video with the sample picture, now its time to blur the pictures that I chose in the beginning.

I like the colors in this picture. I used gaussian blur but made it lower than 750, because I felt it was too much. I then used motion blur, and it was also light. I keep the blurs light because I want to see at least some things from the original.

For this picture, I changed a lot from camera raw filter. I messed around with exposure, contrast, highlights, clarity, vibrance, and saturation. For the gaussian blur, I changed it to 79.5 pixels. I put the motion blur into a -76 degree angle. I used 300 pixels for the motion blur as well.

For my final picture I went into camera raw and changed what I usually change, but I tried to dehaze and I used grain as well. I also wanted to change gaussian blur to 200 pixels, so I did. I used motion blur and changed it to a 0 degree angle. I also changed the pixels to 600. 

Overall, I am glad I chose such nice pictures for my blurs. I like the colors that were in the pictures like green, yellow, and blue.
