Blur

With reaConverter, blurring one or more images can be done in only a few seconds, using three different blurring techniques with customized intensity.

Blurring an image using digital editing can be a good way to make it look more interesting or mysterious, hiding possible imperfections or focusing more on colors rather than shapes and shadows. This photo editing technique is also used frequently by photographers to correct images that look too sharp, adding a most welcome smoothing effect that facilitates a more natural blending of all elements present in the image.

Pictures with an added blur effect often suggest a motion movement and can create a feeling of authenticity in capturing a particular moment on camera.
