Tutorial: How to create beautiful ocean panning shots in post

Over on my gallery page on instagram ( @foroceanandlight) I posted an ocean panning image and I got some responses on how to create an image like that so I decided to make a quick how to tutorial.

Before:

1/320s, f4, ISO 3200

This is after I edited it in Lightroom. When you are happy with the colors you pull it over to photoshop by right clicking the image > edit in > edit in photoshop. Once it loads in photoshop you go up and click on filter> blur >motion blur. You can play around with the settings to your liking. I adjusted it to angle 0 and distance : 1313 pixels.

After:

I love these artsy shots! What do you think?
