Rhododendron
I cut this rhodo flower from my garden, put it in a vase, and set it up on a turntable on a little table in my purple powder room. Shooting with a tripod, I set my camera to multiple exposure and took nine shots, turning the turntable a bit between shots. I used a flashlight to "light paint" during one of the exposures.
The technique was inspired by Pep Ventosa's "tree in the round" method. I figured that if you can do a 360-degree multiple exposure of a tree, you could do one of a smaller subject too. My friend Victor came up with the turntable idea. Why walk around the subject, when you can just turn the subject on a lazy susan!
