Date Uploaded: Sep 20, 2008

 Taken by a lake near my house
My first attempt at creating artistic shots using slow shutter speeds
Taken at night, using a 3o sec shutter
Sitting on tripod for 18sec of exposure facing a green bush being illuminated by streetlight (hence green background)
Then taken of tripod and slow sweeps being made across streetlight with camera to create lines
Took many exposures until i found a pattern i liked
Editing - brightness, contrast, boost green colour, boost saturation, unsharp mask to define light sweeps

Hope everyone likes it :)

Neo didn't consider the problems with taking acid while trying to watch The Matrix.

I like it, but you must know that abstracts usually don't do well in non abstract challenges. I applaud you for entering this.
