Thats great, its amazing how steady the chains and seat were whilst they were spinning, creating a perfect effect!

Wooh! This is amazinly well done, right down to the in-focus center.

A visual marvel like Op Art. The angle and swirls actually make me dizzy to look at (or is it my blood pressure meds?). What a way to convey motion! Outstanding and well worth the effort. -tv

hi Rod & RK - the motion is real, not photoshopped. the camera was attached to the top of the chain and pointed down, then the whole rig was spun with the camera on self-timer.
You might recall my shot in CTF challenge #115 - this here was a test shot before I got my daughter to sit in the tire swing for that shot. I guess the A620 doesn't handle the extreme dynamic range so well so it came out looking a little posterized... - b.c.

This looks quite false to me, was it created in Photoshop?
