This photo is of a set of brightly colored stacking/nesting boxes. I have two different versions and at the last minute decided to submit this one. I just liked this one the best, although, the other has more lines. After the challenge I'll put it in my portfolio.
I placed the boxes on the floor with my camera on a tripod directly over it. I used my wide angle lens at 16 mm and f/22. After clicking the shutter (set at 8 sec.) I slowly lifted and rotated the boxes then set them back down.
I made a few adjustments in RAW, then in photoshop - cropped, cloned out a few small imperfectioins, and added the border.
I'm afraid that since this appears to be more art than photo (even though very little post-processing was done) it will be marked down.

This is a very nice abstract. I really like the blurred focus. Interesting idea moving the subject during the exposure. Congratulations for thinking outside the box with your boxes. :)
OK...how did you do this? Surely our Nikon 3100 doesn't have the houfsba to create such special effects. Was it done on camera or on computer? Curious. Good luck 6
