I just learned this technique from seeing other people post on this site. I am so glad that I find everyone here so inspiring. I can now paint pictures with my camera. I didn't know that I could do that!
Ok, I have a friend in Mexico that uses this style on flowers and trees and had some great success. Use a tripod and lower lighting and you can get some really cool stuff. I will have to try this on some of my shots for 365. Thanks!
@jkmccarron thanx for the suggestions. I have a tripod but it's amazing how many times I just plain neglect to use it! I'll definitely give it a whirl.
