Did a polar co-ordinate on a shot (1/8 th sec:D) with a plain BG, added a texture, and blended . Darkened Corners. Might look like some compression, but I think it is the texture coming through because I did a gaussian blur and some NR,
Comments Appreciated.

Jackie, I really like the effect.It looks like it's floating in a sky of warm golden colors. It has a very fresh look to it. I might put the goose just a bit more to the LRC if it were mine. But I wouldn't want to loose any of the space or the color in that area.

Great title for this lovely work, Jackie. You must have cracked a really good blur here, and the polar co-ordinate works beautifully. Love the colors too:)

Jackie its OOTB, I'll give you that...love the colors of the background, the goose not so sure of, the goose effect is neat but... I wonder what it would look like, if it arched from the bottom???

Thanks for the comments, I appreciate them.:)

Very nice Jackie! The bg is awesome and the sense of motion you got with the blur is excellent.

I love it. The thought of a Canada Goose doing a loop-de-loop makes me smile, as does the beautiful colors in your image. :)
