Another outside reading which I wanted to bring attention to is an article entitled Blurred Images Put Ideas in Focus by Philip Douglis which discussed how blurry photos can still be regarded as art. It gives a great deal of reverence to the idea that art is in the eye of the beholder and different meanings for each viewer can lead to a different encounter with an art form. This blurry photo for instance can be interpreted by the viewer in many different ways, whether that be seeing the tree as the point of focus or how the lighting obscures the true time of the day. Interpretations are very subjective and in this case I don't know how else to label a blurry photograph than as art in its truest sense.
