11:52pm... decided to change my entry to my alternate... my first "Abstract" entry... Gulp!
This is about 40 of those "glow necklaces" connected end-to-end, coiled up like a hose, and then spread out on the floor (which was covered by black cloth). Zoomed during the exposure to get the "trails".
The entry I was originally going to submit is here:

Its got some great color, and I see what you were trying to go for with the zoom... I'm just, it doesnt do much for me. It looks muddled and accidental.
Sorry :(
I liked this photo better as a thumbnail for some reason. The close-up has a plastic artificial flavour. I enjoyed the glowing rays of light that seem to engulf my attention towards the middle. At the opposite, the bright colours urge me to look around at the borders. Great composition. Thanks!
