Beautifully done :)!!! I very much appreciate your description of how you took this. I would ask other folks "How" but hate to bother them!!! #4559533

Thanks for the comments Mary...This was taken in a shaded area. I used my macro lens and using my manual setting, I stopped the aperture down as far as it would go (f-32) to get enough time on the shutter to allow movement of the camera. In this case I used a half circular movement to emphasize the already swirled shapes of the hosta leaves. It is a lot of experiment to get results you like, but fun to see what you come up with. #4562719
