The first shot in a series, this is an experiment in turning a camera while the shutter's open.

Here are three different experiments in taking a blurred shot of this scene. The first also involves turning the camera, but yielded quite different results:

excerpt from the blurgeois pedagogues thread:

Your title is an attempt to shape the viewer's interpretation of your abstract photo. It offers not just a subject but one rich with themes developed by Lewis Carroll and the Matrix. But it is only an attempt: the photo itself is not so easily rabbit-holed pigeon-holed. Though I will grant you that it is a rather effective interpretation. I do indeed sense depth in your photo, whereas I perceive motion in JPR's. Perhaps that is what you were getting at when you asked for a comparison. Yours is indeed a hole, while his is a tornado: two different but equally valid vehicles of transformation. What interests me about your photo is that it feels like I can almost make out the subjects, but as I do I go deeper into the "hole." It is as though you are representing the very process of looking. To some degree, I think most great photos do this, but that's a whole nuther can of worms.

Good feeling of depth and down... down... down.......

I wonder how it would be to crop it so that the diagonal in the upper right is exactly in the corner. I know, I'm terribly anal.

This looks very "urban" to me. You used the blur to good advantage while shooting this image. The tilt helps too.

Sorta looks like it's on a plane. Nice abstract.

Really abstract. I'm trying to figure out what it is. Looks like a guy - I think I see his jacket and tie. The scalloped design of the "hole" is kinda cool.
