I don't normally add anything about my blurry photos as it can spoil the fun for some viewers. But . . .

I used a 10 stop ND filter to help prolong the shutter speed at a large aperture. This was taken at twilight, so the light was low and adjusting the ISO helped to keep the shutter speed reasonable.

There are two kids in the image. The dark blob at the bottom is a head. Her arms are extended above her and you can make out her right hand clutching a zip line type thingy. The second kid is waiting on the platform. I braced the camera against the beam they were sliding across so it wouldn't be a total blurry mess. ;)

Why is the goose swallowing the little person? A very abstract image with plenty of opportunity for imagination to discover seemingly familiar shapes.
