About Call me strange..( I'm used to it)..This is from a photo taken during a night time live Nativity play at a local church. I took quite a few shots, but the ones with flash, I hated, and the ones without were blurred. This is a crop of one I took of an onstage performance by a group of very talented young men and women. For some reason, this one touched my heart. The round object was actually a large round piece of painted sheet metal, used for sound effects. Cropped only, to remove another person that was on the right. Taken at approx 1/8 of a sec, handheld.

Wow - that is magic...Great movement, blur, and colours. This kind of shots show more of the atmosphere then those who are sharp. The sharp one show the faces the details. I like sharp images as well - but this one with this lovely movement blur is lovely!

Great abstract. Sometimes blurred fits and portrays a mood like this shot.

She did have a gold crown of some sort on, and a flowing white robe. She had swirled around and was rolling this large round piece of metal. Good to see ya back. I've missed you and Shameless. :) Look forward to seeing you on more again soon!

I really like this. It's a well balanced abstract, ambiguous enough to let people their own explanations. I think it has a definite Christmas feel too, maybe because of the pink color and maybe because of the shapes that look like veils or drapery of some sort. Very interesting.

Very unusal and fantastic results Rebecca, very eye challenging, at first I thought it was taken from above, another great one!

OK - I finally 'found' the person in this :) - not that I had to, since this works so nicely as an abstract! To me this photo evokes images of some kind of frenzied ritual dance, seen through the haze of a trance as the participants whirl and leap about. Great job turning a 'bad' photo into a great one!

Well Ms Strange, I think you have a good eye. Oops maybe you didn't mean that literally. Interesting shot, I have looked at it a number of times and am still to decide what I think. I will say it holds my attention. The more I look the more I think I like it. Del.

I hope this is not the ghost of "Christmas Future." If so, I need to find a way to turn off my dreams on Christmas Eve.lol I won't call you strange but I might apply that word to this photo. May be that I'm the strange one. Before reading your About, I thought it was a close-in shot of a long-haired dog.
In any event - I like it!

Different, dramatic, thought-provoking!! I love themovement and the glint of gold. Is that a crown of thorns Rebecca? I see a swirl of heavenly movement.

To me Becc this looks like an Angel flapping his wing. Wouldn't call you weird, cause I like it too. :) Dottie PS I wouldn't crop it, you'd be hacking off the angel's wing! lol

not 1/3 down...just about 1/4 down (above the head). And maybe you should take this advice with a grain of salt, given that I am so out of steam...lol T.

This is offbeat, and I have sat here for awhile trying to get a fix by reading and looking and finally I was able to read the person in it. It comes off so abstract. I am very familiar with the challenges you faced, and it can be so disappointing, especially when the production was a good one and I've haven't captured it the way I wanted to. This is interesting and I would crop it about 1/3 down and a little off the left. I can't say exactly why right now because I think it's just too late for my brain to formulate in writing. It has promise for me. T.
