Animated Images In UIImageView

UIImageView* animatedImageView = [[UIImageView alloc] initWithFrame:self.view.bounds];

                               [UIImage imageNamed:@"image1.png"],
                               [UIImage imageNamed:@"image2.png"],

Blur effect for imge using Core Image

Add CoreImge.framework

UIImage *theImage = [UIImage imageNamed:@"Sample.png"];

    //create our blurred image
    CIContext *context = [CIContext contextWithOptions:nil];
    CIImage *inputImage = [CIImage imageWithCGImage:theImage.CGImage];

    //setting up Gaussian Blur (we could use one of many filters offered by Core Image)
    CIFilter *filter = [CIFilter filterWithName:@"CIGaussianBlur"];
    [filter setValue:inputImage forKey:kCIInputImageKey];
    [filter setValue:[NSNumber numberWithFloat:15.0f] forKey:@"inputRadius"];
    CIImage *result = [filter valueForKey:kCIOutputImageKey];
    //CIGaussianBlur has a tendency to shrink the image a little, this ensures it matches up exactly to the bounds of our original image
    CGImageRef cgImage = [context createCGImage:result fromRect:[inputImage extent]];

self.imageView.image=[UIImage imageWithCGImage:cgImage];
