Started off photographing a burning candle for the 2 sec challenge. Obviously it didn't work :(.
The, started digging through my old toys....
Lighting was a bit of a problem, but ended up pretty happy with the results. Lets see how the voting goes.

My take on the 2 sec thing : The challenge said " exposure of exactly 2 secs", NOT "depict/show two seconds" or "show two secs photograpically". (Good thing too, 'cos it would be 90% clocks and waterfalls)

I personally took it for granted that only 2 sec exposures would be entered, feel a bit cheated that others chose to ignore this... A precident has been set, technical limitations are ignorable. At least I can sleep at night knowing that there was no cheating in my submission, despite the score.

Nice picture, but there's nothing there to demonstrate the idea of a 2-second exposure.

This may be a 2-second exposure but it doesn't seem relevant.

Great bright colors, and a very clear, sharp, image as well.....

this is a great shot, but I a not sure it is demonstrating the sprit of the 2 second challenge...while it may have been a 2 second exposure, it might as well have been a 1/200 exposure if you know what I mean
