A Forest and motion blur.
#1

I saw somewhere something similar and I wanted to make my own try.

Wow!! Great concept. I love it.

It reminds me of a movie where the trees are hair on a head.What a great effect.

Thanks Toad!! Smile

I am very happy you liked the idea.

I have seen lately a lot of work done with up side down trees...I don't really know whether that has a special meaning or not, but I have seen beautiful images. I might work something with this effect and liquify...

A striking photo Irma. My only comment is to make the lines, follow the forked bottom of the tree, on the right foreground.

And the upside down trees are standard in Australia.Big Grin

Thanks NT and Matthew for your comment... Smile

NT the thing is that in the middle of the tree there is a leaf and I didn't want to erase it with the motion blur.

It's surrealism--it's gone beyond special effects. Now you are a pioneer.

Thanks Don... Smile
I am very happy you liked it. What I like a lot here is that I have the trees blurred but still you can appreciate some texture. Maybe because of the contrast of light... Smile

But I don't have it in flickr... you might have seen it somewhere else?

Most of my flickr contacts don't like image manipulation to this level. They just want to see photographs.

I had planned to open another account in flickr with only my photomanipulations and promote them as such, but I did it in deviantART.

I really liike this too: lovely tones and helped by the fact that it's a good composition anyway.

Thanks Zig.. you are right it has some composition and the colors are quite nice too, I think... Smile

However I don't think it would look interesting without this effect. How many pictures of forest we see every day and are so boring. You need to have sunbeams or mist and great light and colors to really make your forest picture stand out.
