I haven't done many altered/edited shots like
this, and I almost over-looked the idea for
this one, but if you like it... I'm glad I
thought of it. Thanks for faving, commenting
and The Big fave too!
Ps... The substance of this photo was
(supposed to be) the beautiful blue sky, the
park, and as a feature - the moon was shining
brightly above. When I added the spin to the
image, the moon stretched across the sky,
leaving its white trail. I can only hope that
others interpret this as a shooting star and
find it inspiring. :))
You caught me, fireshift. I've seen people
who have more contacts than I do (and I don’t
know how they do it), but I try to stay in
touch with everyone on my list - if not once
a week, then once a month.
How do I do it? Well, some people have
noticed that I "fave" a lot. I try
to set aside one day a week to devote to
doing nothing but visiting my contacts and I
alternate with household chores (to keep me
bumm from getting sore). I try to comment at
least once, but if nothing else, I can fave
something that I like... and it lets them
know that I was there, and that I like their
work.
I haven't made it around to all of my
contacts, in a single day, in a long, long
time - but I sure do try. If I hit a hundred
or more; I’m doing well. Now you know my
secret. ;)
Thanks Robert. :)) Having a technique named
after you would be an accomplishment - I'll
take it, if I can get it. ;) I should use
this technique more often, but seldom think
of it, and it doesn't work for every
picture... but I really like it when the
opportunity presents itself. Thanks
:">
And soooo glad you like this image, everyone!
ABigFave, Silver and Wowie are great pools
for exposure - Thanks!
Just a warning - You're reinforcing my sense
of adventure. :">
Yeah this works. The ferris wheel looks
almost sitting still when seen in contrast to
the foreground as a wild blurry fun ride.
That's why I like it, of course the deep blue
sky is totally killer too. Great action shot
and manip! Great colors!
I know this might sound silly to some of you
"Greats", but I'm compelled to
mention it.... "This photo is my first
to receive over twenty Faves"... I'm
blushing. :"> Thanks All.
Thank you Lou and Mike - I haven't received a
trophy or color photo award in along time!
And new friends from the Wowie and Silver
pool, as well! Thank you, and Welcome. :)

You make it look so easy. I've never seen an image like this. Maybe I'll try it and call it the moon technique.
