Wednesday Mind Hump

Christmas Light Trick #3

The above photo was taken in December of 2006. What is it, you ask? It's our Christmas tree! I got the effect by turning the flash off so that the camera would pick up any light movement. I then experimented with moving the camera around each time I hit the shutter button. Different movements gave me different results in the light patterns.

I like this photo for two reasons. The first reason is that it simply looks pretty! The second is that it is a positive outcome of creative thinking. Sometimes when you break the rules, you get something that looks great.
