Challenge: Square Crop (Advanced Editing IV)
Camera: Nikon D50
Location: NY
Date: Mar 5, 2006
Aperture: f/3.3
Shutter: 30 sec.
Date Uploaded: Mar 5, 2006

 Put a pinhole in an index card which I\'d colored black. Taped it on the front of a mini flashlight, which I then hung on a string from the ceiling in the bathroom (no windows in there). Set the shutter for 30 seconds. Twisted the string up, and then as I let it start untwisting I also set it into a gentle circle. Picture is cropped and I used the unsharp mask.

I love this image, but I seem to be drawn to the square crop format as I love the impact it gives me. I love how you set this one up.

Great idea, too bad the light got cut off on the bottom and top.
