Image blur is a digital image processing technique that reduces image sharpness by averaging pixel values with their neighbors.
Gaussian blur applies a mathematical function that creates a smooth, natural-looking blur effect.
Motion blur simulates the effect of camera movement, while zoom blur creates a radial blur effect from a center point.
The blur intensity determines how many neighboring pixels are considered for each final pixel value.
Applying too much blur that makes the image unusable
Start with low blur intensity and gradually increase until you achieve the desired effect.
Using blur on important details that viewers need to see
Plan your composition beforehand to identify which areas need blur and which should remain sharp.
