Description

This is a composite of 4 photos of carnival lights made by moving camera during a long exposure. On the balls, I painted a heavy white line for the reflections then spherized them with Paint Shop. I used layers in PSCS to size and place them over a 4th image that had been distorted by changing perspective and skewing. Background was complementeray color picked up from the images.
