Wow wow wow! This is not only strong color, it's dizzying... if I can say that?
Great shot, Photocat!!!

I can't make my mind up about this one. I keep coming back to look at it. The colour and dof are great, but I think I would like to have seen more of the far end of the spiral to give a focal point to the image.

I live here in Texas. I'm sure you must have me confused with the Photocat that frequently posts in the challenges. Our names are very similar, purely by coincidence. :)

Great color in all three images you have posted Cat. I like this one best for its compelling vertigo effect. I'm wondering if this is a crop or you have some similar frames as I think it would be neat to see further inside the contracting rings as they go from corner to corner like your second image.

Pretty simple set-up really. It's a neon blue slinky under a black light. One end of the slinky is over the lens and the other is clamped to a shelf over my desk.

Creates a really nice optical illusion - is this a tunnel or a hill? - I am curious about your lighting technique photocat??? Great pic! - angioman
