Kinda screwy . . .

They're not "sweeps." They're not "swipes." Nope, these are SWIRLS. The light was still low, so I decided to play with sweeps (moving the camera right/left), but they didn't have a lot of interest to them, plus the lights from the fishing boats turned into little yellow dotted lines that I didn't like. So instead I tried swirling the camera in front of me during the exposure. I'll say no more because I think I'm going to use this idea as one of my Photomotivation tutorials/lessons, and will be taking more of these sorts of pictures as examples. Fun stuff! ©Carol Leigh

Carol, these are INCREDIBLE! Keep at it! When I try things like this I get garbage. I need to move to the Oregon coast.

Yes, you definitely need to move to the Oregon coast -- California waves are just crap for this sort of thing! :-)
