How to cover-up a failure

Normally I show my best photos here, but as everyone who has ever taken a photograph knows, a lot of the photos end up in the trash can. Either they have bad lightning or they're blurred or the colours are way off. The photo of the day of a red deer stag roaring to the world was blurred beyond repair, so I opted for a crop, a conversion to b/w and blurring the surroundings even more. I'm actually kind of pleased with that result, even though I normally prefer to get it right in-camera.
