Photographer Comment: I have photographed this little tableau in the front yard, a few times before. Two days from the posting of the new WA themes, I suddenly realized I had exActly the subject for... Both themes.. right in front of me. The "whoosh" was created using a sequence of still and zooming portions of the same long exposure. In other words, I held steady for the first half and zoomed during the second half. Many attempts were shot, with several promising results, but this one rose to the top of the pick. The suspended "object" is the result of the application of a couple of Photoshop transforming filters, as laid out here: http://brilliantdays.com/archives/2005/10/how_to_create_a.php.
