Yeah...I know there are a lot of wavelengths in this....
OK...3 strands of colored decorative lights two on the right and one on the left of a reflective wind twister which was set in motion and shot in a three shot +/- 1/3 bracket at 2 or so seconds.
Post:
Layer adjustments for levels, brightness/contrast, hue and saturation. Red Paw Hot pixel remover...hmmm... darkens does not remove but got some...then healed a lot more than USM...then heal some more!!! ...Oy! Crop. Resize. USM

POST: Sorry I got this entry done so late I barely had time to write what I did let alone try to do any HTML trickery.....So the process and set up for this image is the same as my Illusion Challenge entry, Rainbow Oscillations: Thanks for the great comments during the challenge!

From the Critique Club

I think you did a great job on this photograph. The lights are out of focus intentionally and it was successful. You photograph is very clean, meaning that the background is nice and smooth behind your subject. I feel the exposure to be good and the colors to be great adding a 'wow' factor to the photograph.

You image IMO is balanced to a degree but could of been a little more aliened to show a wave length. I believe even with the balance issue your visual elements are effective and show a strong interest, pattern, and design. I give you props on a simple yet complete without distracting elements in your photograph.

I find your photograph to keep my attention, again showing some 'wow' factor. It also is creative and you used an unusual subject in an effective way.

Great job and continue the good work. IMO if the wave lengths would of been more fluent than random I feel your score would of surpassed the 6 mark.

Not quite getting this, but as an abstract, I usually don't. LOL....Pretty colors though.

Excellent abstract. I might push the sats and contrast a tiny bit more, but I'm a notorious overdoer in that respect. Wonderful composition! :)
