Michele (one L?), it could probably be anywhere along the CA/OR coast. But this is south of Half Moon Bay. It's all very similar. But this is actually a small cove usually covered by some treacherous surf and riptides at least 10 feet deep. But on low tide mid-days, it opens up and you can walk in there.

Nice image Joe- I agree your cliff resembles a totem and a beautiful one at that..... lovely view and where in the heck are you anyway ? I am on the PNW coast of Or. but it appears a bit we have some simularities-

I like the colors and the composition (esp. the way the edges of the petals lead the eye to the center). Simply beautiful.

Sure, 800 isn't so bad. Thing is, here are two examples of shots where I then show a bit of the original resolution.
This one I ran a PS filter on and then posted a small segment of here:
http://www.usefilm.com/Image.asp?ID=1266621
http://www.usefilm.com/Image.asp?ID=1266023
And this one a crop is located in the thread:
http://www.usefilm.com/Image.asp?ID=1176064
But compared to what you're shooting with my camera is pretty slow.
I have seen some fair camera phone pictures here too.

1.5MP is still pretty good, if you go full frame, particularly when it's only an 800 pixels web photo. You can actually get detail from a cell phone, as well. And because it's blurred, like this, there's not much chance for stair-step alias effects.

James, no I didn't. I was on my way elsewhere. It was around sunset. And you know that 'magic hour' is as if nature turned on a bunch of colored spotlights. I saw this on the ground, and thought it was interesting. Plus, back then I didn't have a macro setup as I put together with later cameras. But it didn't occur to me to get closeups, which is what I think you meant.

James, the shutter was dragged, and the light sources were moved. I explain in more detail at my scenic-route.com, Photos, Glass, and there's a Note.

Did you go in tight for any macro shots? I love pine tar. I have a small jar of it I collected one winter from pieces of firewood.

Reminds me of those scenes where a demon gets his asp kicked and swirls around some phalic relic before shooting off skyward.

Nice job. Don't know how I missed these. I'm confused though. Was the camera stationary and the flashlight moving? That's what it looks like, but your About seems to suggest something different.

Thank you, everyone, for the comments. As someone said, here or elsewhere, 80% of photography is being in the right place. And I haven't often seen thickets like this. It almost looks like a covering or door.

Hehe. You could probably accomplish the same effect by sucking on each one for a little bit before stacking them together. Maybe while drinking some orange juice (for the acidic effect).

Yeah, that's a really fast camera (the newest top o' the pops from Canon will do 10fps), but 1.5mp really sets you back a bit in terms of pixalization.
The shot is very effectively framed. The motion blur throughout it is great.

I've been doing this kind of blurring in-camera by spinning my wrist while shooting. Much harder to get the shot centered, but pretty cool results when I hit it right.

This was posted shortly ago. But it was suggested that a blue-cast on the pulleys might be distracting. It was simple enough to remove the cast, but I didn't want to then compress this down to 750. So I reloaded.
