Description

Radial or Zoom Blur Effect - Middle of blur can be moved to generate starburst effects too. The point where the blur converges also has a mark which allows a selected area of the original images to come through. The shape of this area can be configured and feathered to balance the effect with the original. Large step values give image echo effect.The radial effect is interesting as it uses FF script to calculate the blur vectors making the filter more configurable. It also works well with non square images.Works especially well on portraits where background is distracting and on buildings.Comments welcome.
