The first shot in a series, this is an experiment in turning a camera while the shutter's open.
Here are three different experiments in taking a blurred shot of this scene. The first also involves turning the camera, but yielded quite different results:
Your title is an attempt to shape the viewer's interpretation of your abstract photo. It offers not just a subject but one rich with themes developed by Lewis Carroll and the Matrix. But it is only an attempt: the photo itself is not so easily rabbit-holed pigeon-holed. Though I will grant you that it is a rather effective interpretation. I do indeed sense depth in your photo, whereas I perceive motion in JPR's. Perhaps that is what you were getting at when you asked for a comparison. Yours is indeed a hole, while his is a tornado: two different but equally valid vehicles of transformation. What interests me about your photo is that it feels like I can almost make out the subjects, but as I do I go deeper into the "hole." It is as though you are representing the very process of looking. To some degree, I think most great photos do this, but that's a whole nuther can of worms.
Really abstract. I'm trying to figure out what it is. Looks like a guy - I think I see his jacket and tie. The scalloped design of the "hole" is kinda cool.
