Oh this is fun! I like the dark coming in from the edges. Usually, I don't care for vignetting type of look, but it works well with this!

Great job, Spiffy!! What a clever idea! (can't vote, though...)

This is so cool!! I love it! All the way home from minnesota, I kept seeing batches of trees in the snow. They were so lovely, I really wanted to photograph them. However, it was snowing, we were on icy freeways, and I figured it wouldn't be a good idea to try to pull off on a shoulder with snowplows going by :D

However, I wouldn't have thought about trying a longer exposure. I love the shot and the effect. Thanks once again for helping me see past the ordinary!

That is one really creepy spider! The body is so bulbous and the legs look more like vines!

Absolutely spectacular! This is what I really would like to learn, so I'm very curious -- how much of the softness, warmth, etc was done in photoshop and how much is "as is"? It just glows...

Very nice! I'm curious about your lighting setup.

Also, the big question, did you use a soft focus filter, did you photoshop it? It's very soft and smooth and I'm wondering how you acheived that. (I'm just learning lighting/indoor portraiture, so I need the basics...)
