Blurstraction - Kinetic by TwoPynts
Open full image in new tabDescription
"The very purpose of existence is to reconcile the glowing opinion we have of ourselves with the appalling things that other people think about us." ~ Quentin Crisp
The quote has no application to the image, but I liked it. ;'P Some of you may remember that I did a series of Blurstractions™ (coined term, heheheh) a while back. They are intentionally blurred images (moving the camera while releasing the shutter) taken to achieve an abstract effect. Well, it is the time of year again when the light is condusive during my commute home for this sort of thing. Also, I just got the bug to try doing some more ot them. The photo is of tailights in trafffic and the lighter portion at the top right is the darkening sky. Postwork included rotating the image 90 degrees, noise reduction, hot spot removal, levels and saturation adjustment, resizing, frame and signature addition. -----

Just like my first attempt at bending neon signs for a friend and I was trying to make the letter "S", but it didn't quite work out and looked like a "Z"...hehe ! ~Cheers~

Excellent concept displayed here with the tail lights going hither and yon. I'd heard of kinetic energy, but never blurstraction.

I like the quote too. Reminds me of a friend who talked about everybody else. One day she was informaed what someone had said about her and she was flaberghasted that anyone would talk about her. I had to laugh. How naive and arrogant. Very cool tracers.

This makes me think of the old May pole streamers. It was a wonderful celebration each year. Got stopped due to our fear of being associated with a Communist celebration. Nevermind that non-Communist countries also celebrated the event. Now, here you are with "red" light streamers! ;))) I don't give a darn. This is beautiful!
