    Default What is this?

    No, this is not a quiz. I really have no idea what this is! :D

    I just uploaded the latest batch of pics out of my camera and this is a shot I took earlier today. It was the first shot I took today but I still can't figure out what it is. Getting old sucks! :confused:

    The upside is that now I'm in the mood to go and try shooting some blurs.

    Ken, I can't even begin to guess but the colors are lovely. It has a very nice abstract look and I would love to see more of these from you. It's wonderful.:)

    I forgot to mention that other than cleaning up a few dust spots and resizing for posting, this is exactly how it came out of the camera.

    Ken, whatever it is, I like it:) What were the camera specs? When I saw the thumbnail for some reason puffin came into my head.

    I know I went out to shoot a jumping spider but it was gone when I got there so I wandered around looking for something else to shoot but didn't think I'd found anything but obviously I did. I've got Marigolds and Lantana growing so maybe I accidentally tripped the shutter when walking through my garden.

    The colors are pretty cool. I guess you have blur talent and didn't even know it...

    Ken, I think you were captured by aliens (they wanted your hat), just before you got away, you managed to get a blured image of one of them....:)...thats my story and I'm sticking to it. Very nice blur, intentional or not.

    It looks like an angled portrait of Pochahantas. Too tired to check the spelling. You might have tripped the shutter accidentally while walking with the lens on a strap.

    Alien American Gorilla? :D

    Artie, I really did laugh out loud when I read your reply! It looks like Pocahontas has a black eye. :D

    Ah, now I see Pocahontas (but only now with a gorilla pounding on her head - black eye is gorilla's right fist)... ;) I wonder what Rorschach would say?

    Cheers,

    Sorry can't be of any help here Ken. Looks like you tripped the shutter without knowing it. You gotta love it when that happens and you end up with this result!
