 *Clearing throat pompously* Attention, ladies and gentlemen...introducing the snaffles technique of light manipulation! Simply move your camera from a stationary handheld position, while the shutter is still open, thus capturing the light as lines, while still staying *more or less* focused on the solid objects like trees all around you!
As usual voters will either love or hate this. I like it, so I don't care.

pp: RAW-TIFF conversion, clone out sensor dust, crop, curves, contrast, resize, usm, sharpen edges, save for web.

Hi from the Critique Club,

You asked for your shot to have an in depth comment from a member of the Critique Club.

I looooooooove this, I think it is really good. You have managed to bring a whole new line concept to your photos!.

I think that this is a brilliant anbstract of what can be done, I think just a little more contrast at your background would bring out the lines even more.

I really like this, I think it should have scored higher than it did for artistic merit

Not really working for me, but I do think there are some folks that this will have strong appeal for. A Posthumous mention would not surprise me for this.
