Challenge: Long Exposure IV (Minimal Editing I)
Camera: Canon EOS-20D
Lens: Canon EF 100mm f/2.8 USM Macro
Location: cellar
Date: Sep 16, 2008
Aperture: f2.8
ISO: 100
Shutter: 0.6 sec
Date Uploaded: Sep 18, 2008

 These are the LED lights on the front of my washing machine: the colors caught my eye while I was loading the washer..; so, I took the camera, shut off all the lights in the cellar -it was almost total darkness, then sat in front of the washing machine with the camera, moving the camera in spirals until a pattern emerged; this was my favorite composition of the lights after about 50 images...for some reason I think it's really cool..nobody else will!

I don't know why I didn't leave a comment when I gave this a 10. I really like the colors and pattern. It's a beautiful and exciting abstract. Great use of long exposure. I'm curious to know how you got the individual light spots instead of a blur of light streaks.

Nice. It is so...computery. Sort of like war games except with more colors.

Now this is great! I tried this same kind of thing with my dashboard, but it didn't work out.

the circles of lights and how they seem to interact as if helices is very cool

Really groovy shot, almost like something you'd see in a kaliedoscope or a laser light show.
