I took this a few months back. Not sure if I like it, love it, or neither. Some times I really enjoy the color and movement, but then other times it's just too much and it makes me completely dizzy. Opinions, anyone?



Nikon d60, ISO 100 f/36, 1/6 sec.

Oh - by the way? Not sure what it is? It's the weed growing on the edge of a barley field shot from a moving car at 30 about mph. I was trying to pan... I know it didn't work. But I kindda like it anyway...

... you clone out those black dots. :)

You get one thumb up from me. I like the movement and your courage to post an image on this site that is not in sharp focus and not the usual burger and fries.

I would work it a bit more though. I'd like to see it a little darker with a little more contrast and of course without the black coffee beans.
Nice creative effort here. Thanks for sharing.

I like it, and I love the way you took it. I could see a whole series done in a "30 mph" mode... that's the exciting part to me. Doesn't matter what the subject matter is. I love the human involvement on your part (and hopefully the other person with you who was doing the driving...)
 
Very interesting, how it gives more of a "twister" look to it than just a drive-by.

And yes.. your sensor needs a serious cleaning.

Nice image.
 
Looks like some sort of vortexy windy thingy. Lucky you didn't get caught up in it. Don't look at it too often, ok. Graeme in oz

I've always loved taking pictures. Other interests incl motor bike...suzuki C90 cruiser, pushbike riding (just to keep fit after retiring),make things such as kitchens, picture frames,wood turning and other things out of timber (my forte when teaching).
 
Thanks a lot for sharing your honest opinions everybody! Like Karin and several other pointed out, there are some serious black dots on the image. I think they were on the filter. They are not there anymore ;-) I will certainly take the time to clone out the spots now - with so much positive feedback.

Jerdog's comment: "I think I need to sit down......and hold my head." was one of my own thougts as well... it made me laught out loud.

Richard said he'd like to see more contrast (and less "coffee beens" - I guess that means spots?). I had already added a lot of contrast and upped the black slider, but I'll look into adding some more when I go to clone away the spots.

Thanks a lot for your enthusiasm, everybody!
