Cyclonic Storm
It’s a photograph, Jim, but not as we know it...
This started out as one of a series of images I took in April for a Macro Monday theme Motion Blur. I put the camera on a rotating record deck and took images of decorative cocktail sticks which were like little witches brooms of colour tinsel. What immense fun that was!
If you want to find out more about the method I link to one of the previously published images which has the detail in the commentary. I’ll also link to the original image that is the starting point of this creation, and I’ll probably publish an interim stage view as well because it’s rather pretty :). See the first comment below.
Thank you for taking time to look! I really hope you enjoy the image even if manipulated works aren’t your preference :) Happy Sliders Sunday!
[See the interim shot commentary (linked below) for detail about most of the creative work. This was created from it in PS using the twirl distortion filter, by first increasing the canvas size by 60%. I then backfilled the transparent areas created after the twirl with black. Finally cropped to 4:6 aspect ratio.]
