Info It's been a while since we had some outrageous abstract photo here, so here goes. :) When the wind is strong, water is not the only thing that moves in a forest. All by me, -- cart-Talk 18:01, 25 June 2017 (UTC)

Oppose I see all moved, motion blur, what is the subject of the picture? Ezarateesteban 22:54, 25 June 2017 (UTC)- Support - The subject is the motion-blurred leaves, and I like the resulting composition enough to support a feature. -- Ikan Kekek (talk) 05:10, 26 June 2017 (UTC)
- Oppose ah, an interesting idea - that could definitely work. Here it doesn't, unfortunately. What this picture's lacking is some kind of firm, stable element, like well visible trunks. But for some reason all trunks and bigger branches are really blurred as well... --Martin Falbisoner (talk) 06:30, 26 June 2017 (UTC)
- At 20 M/s the whole tree, trunk and all, sways and moves (at 30-35 it snaps). :) I was watching the movement of the branches and wondered what it would look like if the whole motion was caught in a long exposure shot, the same way we do with water. I would have liked an even longer exposure, but it was rather sunny and I have no ND filter. The motion was different in all the 10-some shots I made, I liked this best because of the circular motion in it. At least you cant say I'm not testing things. ;) --cart-Talk 08:54, 26 June 2017 (UTC)
- Thanks for elaborating on your approach. Interesting! And please, do test things as much and widely as possible! :-) --Martin Falbisoner (talk) 09:37, 26 June 2017 (UTC)

I withdraw my nomination Ah well, it was a longshot and the comments more positive than I had thought. Thanks all! --cart-Talk 08:22, 27 June 2017 (UTC)
