Well - here's a waterall where I tried to creat an impressionist style photo using Intentional Camera Movement
PENTAX K-3iii handheld 1.5 seconds 100 ISO f5.5 using the 16-85mm PLM lens

I took quite a few BUT they were even worse than this one! There's a balance to be found where you can/cannot recognise the subject - or do you need to e.g. make it into an abstract?????
