Thanks to Wind - an Abstract!

Unseasonably strong winds have made photographing flowers very difficult, so today when it was stronger than ever, decided I had to go with it. A slow shutter speed image of geraniums and foliage!

[Paul]

Wow! I think this has worked really well. It has a painted feel to it that I really like. I think you've viewed your subject in a very unique way :)

[Catherine]

@paul10 Thank you! I was a bit tired of waiting for that short moment when the wind wasn't blowing quite so hard!

[JackieR]

Serenipdous photo. Beautifully captured

[Sue]

Very arty. I like it!

[Catherine Otley]

What a brilliant idea! I have spent the whole day fighting the wind, but you have shown what a good photographer does, works with what she has! Really nice effect.

[Dawn]

love it , brings to mind if you you cant beat it go with it .

[Masquerade]

I love this abstract feel you've created out of unpromising conditions. Fav

[FBailey]

Oh I do like this!

[Photo Bird]

This is so great. I keep meaning to have a go at this sort of thing when the wind is strong but never get around to it. Love those colours. Fav

Very interesting effect - I've tried this before and it's never worked so well done on getting this!

[Babs]

Wow, very clever, I love it.

@30pics4jackiesdiamond @suesouthwood @fbailey @onewing Thank you all for commenting on my experiment!!

[Catherine]

@blueace Thank you! Tried several different shots with different plants, but this was the best, having a little bit of colour against the green.

[Catherine]

@photobird Thank you - the wind has been so strong and unpleasant - not good weather for photographing anything!! Thank you for the fav too.

[Catherine]

@fbailey Thank you! Not so windy today and the flowerbed looks quite different!

[Catherine]

@maskerade Thank you and for the fav. Was really struggling to find anything to photograph!

[Catherine]

@dawnee After a week and a half of strong winds, I was desperate!!!
