This was taken this month at a friends house....there was a fireworks display right next door to their house....we sat on the lawn and I set up my tripod and camera for the event. I used a Nikon N90S, with Portra 160NC for film and the Nikkor 50mm f/1.8 lens. Exposure time was somewhere between 4-6 seconds. What do you think...does this qualify as a motion shot, if you guys think it does.....than I will enter it in the contest.

I am, therefore I create.......

If that ain't motion, there's no water in the ocean!

Actually, no - when push comes to shove this is a great and original idea, and I'm not gonna tarnish it by copying it's originality. I'm sure I've got something recent that'll fit...... (",)
