Sea Foam Steam
2012-05-30
This is not sea foam or steam, of course, but bamboo. I was very happy to go on an official tour of the Mildred E. Mathias Botanical Gardens at UCLA, where I ate lunch almost every day for many years. So, I'm very familiar with the place, but had never gone on a tour.
The in-camera effect is from a vertical pan over the 1/2 second exposure. The processing was mostly modifying the white balance, and then a few other settings as well.
Although I try not to repeat myself, this is actually quite similar to my daily photo on 4/11/11. i think the swirls make it different enough. It'd be fun to go back and work on this technique a little better. I could probably get even better swirls. Also, weird looks.

on June 2, 2012I definitely think it is different enough from your 4/11/11 pic. It's very cool and I love the abstract nature of it. I've got to try panning sometime.
