We’ve all had it happen to us. That amazing photo ruined because someone moved, or because your hand happened to shake a bit. Thankfully, motion blur can make as well as break a photo, as highlighted by the mobile photography magicians at the Nothing but a Nokia Facebook group. These brilliantly creative pics defy the idea that a photo could only represent a single moment. They capture the action, the movement, the mood and the excitement, and we promise you they’re all amazing.

It seems about time for us, too, to start blurring our photos intentionally rather than by accident! If you have any good tips for absolute beginners, please feel free to share them in the comments below. And don’t forget to tell us which of these photos most inspired you. We look forward to reading your thoughts!
