    Abstract lights

    If guess if you can't control it, use it's blur to your advantage. Taken from a moving car, it didn't make sense to try to get a sharp image here.

    Looks like a Led Zeppline track in media player. :lol:

    What was this in real life?

    Love the colours and the way they all lead the eye as they merge at the top of the photo

    Nicely done.

    Oops! hit the wrong button so rediting - could be any depending on the substance :lol:

    I still think 1,2,3, and 4 are still their best albums, just cause I was draged up on them. Hoping to get the boxed set which they just released for xmas along with the boxed set of all of Floyd's albums.

    I am positive another gig is on the cards from the talk in the UK. Will try and get tickets again.

    Dang guys, you're right ... It does look like one of those strange light shows you see on portable MP3 players!

    Tel, it's real alright, a long exposure of Xmas lights as we were driving by. I haven't figured out the methodology to make these work every time yet, ya just have to take a few shots and see what happens!

    PS - Led Zeppelin's music was so creative it makes me realize how we're in a musical drought nowadays. Seems like bands can make a good song here or there, but Led Zeppelin could do it consistently (though they had a few donuts thrown in there too).
