I'm glad you told me, Todd, but I think it still holds the mystique. I'm going to try this myself because I like what you're achieving here. I think the image looks great. - Simon Bennett.

Gosh, I'm about to vaporize the mystique. This was an overhead fan that I took at 1/13th of a sec, in my favorite Aztec Cafe in Santa Fe, NM, where I live. I post processed the h*ll out of it, and cloned some mechanical features off of it, and named it Mexican hat, because it is overhead, hat shaped, and spinning as though you are dancing around it. This was not flash assisted, taken indoors, ISO 64, so I was happy to for the smoothness not being overwhelmed by noise. -todd

This is another one I can't figure out and am just as intrigued. At first glance, it looks like a spinning tire rim. At second glance, I wonder if it's some kind of fancy door knob. ;-) Whatever it is, I really love whatever it is you did to create the effect we see going on. --Nancy
