Marbles on my laptop screen with a white background. After two seconds of the five-second exposure, tilted the screen to roll the marbles.

About your lens on the Digital Rebel XT (Tamron AF 28-200mm f/3.8-5.6 LD Aspherical IF Super II for Canon): I have this same lens on a Canon Elan 7E, which I thought could only be used on the Canon film cameras, but you used it with fantastic results. No error message codes or anything from using it? Would really like to know. Thank you so much!!
I really hope others see this as art ! The faded look gives this a floating almost hot air balloon feeling. This is REALLY a nice photo with everything (all the rules we hate but work)working together nicely ! 9
Love the composition and the feeling the image portrays. The only way I think the image could be improved would be to remove the vertical lines that are semi-transparent. I'm not sure if that's even possible with whatever setup you used. Overall, great image.
This is fun in an abstract way. Question. What's up with the lines? Without those this would be a stronger entry IMO. Bump the contrast a little and run some neat image...???
