La Visite de Claude Monet dans Notre Rue

Nikon D2Xs, Nikon AF Teleconverter TC-16A, Nikkor 50mm f/1.8. I disengaged the AF; thus the teleconverter was providing only extra focal length, in this case converting 50mm to 80mm, which is equivalent to a 120mm lens on a full frame Nikon digital or 35mm film camera.

The preceding nine photographs in this series aren't all as horribly blurred as this one. In fact, one of them is quite sharp. This is the result of using too slow a shutter speed. It's not entirely motion blur because there wasn't an earth tremor at that moment. I ought to have used a camera capable of higher ISO, or a fast lens, or both. But I didn't have those options so I used a Nikon D50 with a Nikkor 28-80mm f/3.3-5.6 AF G lens whilst waiting to meet the 16.23 at Westbury station. Claude Monet noticed that slow shutter speed blurred moving figures and was inspired deliberately to smudge his painting to achieve this blurry effect. Bravo M. Monet! And Bravo The Limbo Connection!

It is out-of-focus. It was not supposed to be out-of-focus. However, I think it is probably more interesting than it would have been had it been sharp.
