2.42 - "Needs Work" 

You may be asking yourself if I traded in my camera for a paintbrush with this scene but you'd be mistaken. This is a fun technique I've seen and it inspired me to try a similar idea in this tree farm. I used a slightly long exposure and panned my camera upwards to make the trees almost stretch upwards creating this fairytale like scene. If you squint hard enough you may find a hobbit...

Lovely composition, color and movement.

Thank you Tomasz, I really appreciate the feedback.

This is a spectacular abstract shot. I would be interested on how you did the post processing on this.

Hello there Skye! Thanks so much for the kind words. What aspect of the processing are you interested in? I made the blur effect by shooting a slightly longer exposure and tilting the camera upward to create the image you see before processing it.

Oh, that's awesome, I did not think that was done in camera! Was it a slow steady tilt over the entire exposure or a tilt up part way through?

I used a cable release and loosened the head to be able to have it rest and move in one hand. I did tilt up it over the entire exposure. Its a fun technique and I suggest a mid length exposure like mine was 1/5s so somewhere around there.
