Well, I think this is the last of the stale PAWs for me to comment upon. All the rest have either been commented on, or deleted (sight unseen - just no time). For some reason this remained on my active list, likely because I only deleted unseen posts, and once I looked at this, I had to comment before I deleted. Or something like that! <g>
Well, you know Mark, it's interesting, but really doesn't do it for me. I know, I know, you're thinking, "what, this guy waits a week and a half only to trash it?" Well, I'm not really trashing it. I mostly like these sorts of swirling lights at night type abstract shots. This one just doesn't seem to have that "focal point" or "smoothness" that I like. Those 8 or so vertical squigley lines dropping down to the bottom of the image bother me for some reason (don't know why - they just do).
I don't know about you, but when I try these sorts of things (which I haven't for a long time), I'll just take a bunch without really having a concept of how they'll turn out, and then wait until I get them back and hope that one or a couple turn out okay (come to think of it, that's what I do with all my photos! <g>), so I'm not commenting on yours as someone who has any particular expertise in this.
I have no idea why I'm blathering on about this, saying nothing in particular, but I am.
I think I'll stop now.
To summarize, interesting, but disquieting for me.
thanks, frank

Hey Folks,
One more for the week. This one was inspired by Shel. He sent me a similar shot and decided to try it also. This shot was taken while driving (with both hands on the wheel). It's the craziest one of all the frames I took. Hope you enjoy:
