Whirly-gig

This wind whirly-gig is in my in laws' yard and it is mesmerizing to watch. The background of bricks was distracting, so I ended up masking around it in black.

Great colors...my father in law calls them whirly-gigs. :)

Never seen them before! I think they are magnificent - a great build! Your black background suits it perfectly!

[Anita Campbell]

I'm afraid I'd be hypnotized watching this It's gorgeous. Surely never seen one with these colors......

That's really good fun. Looks like a flower from the chocolate river area of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory!

Those colors dazzle! I can just imagine it out there bringing smiles to the faces of passersby. I can definitely see why you were drawn to photograph it.

Riveting colors!! Masking the background was a great idea. I don't know how to do that - do you use Photoshop or Lightroom for that?

[Sapphire]

All the colours are fantastic on the dark background.

[Denise (lyndemc)]

Yup, the colors just pop! against the black. I can well imagine that this would be mesmerizing to watch spin.

Great colors- I could see when it's spinning how the iridescence would be very eye-catching. Good shot!
