Used motion blur (twirl) in PSP to give it the effect. Anyway 2 dq's on the trot means I am either getting confused or just going senile. Thanks for your comments, they are always much appreciated. Special thanks to yo_spiff for making it a favourite.
OK, I'm going through the Free Study submissions, purposefully finding those images I think are shot with a less conventional eye - this is one of those images! Thanks for offering something that isn't just DPC friendly eye-candy (though of course there's nothing wrong with eye-candy):
Positives: This is a really interesting effect which complements the subject matter perfectly. The monochrome treatment works - I imagine that colour would too but nonetheless I like this monochrome image. I like the way the image has a both abstract and real-world feel.
Critical stuff: I think there is a limited amount of interest in this scene but I think you have done a good job at capturing it in this photograph.
Overall: I'd be curious to a see a colour version but nonetheless this is an interesting and engaging image.
