Playing with lights

Most of my camera abstracts are panning shots. Thought I'd post this one though, because it was created by zooming rather than panning.

The exposure was 4 seconds (f/25.0, ISO 200, lens 28-135mm). Over the 4-second exposure, I rotated the lens so it progressed through it's entire range. The processing was done a few years ago, so I don't remember, but this looks like it might actually be two zoomed abstracts (of the same scene) sandwiched together.

Have fun playing this week!! :jump:

Definitely, Kaboom, Karen! Very colorful and plus it looks like there's some camera motion as well for some extra wiggles.
