A few pages back Tanveer posted a night shot of city. I used the same technique to take a picture of Phoenix city

Another long exposure taken on the same night. Only light available was moon light (two days before full moon) and city lights at a distance.

To get the same effect you need to rotate the camera also along with the zoom.

One from my side after PP using Picasa.

Rudra Sen · 27th October 2007, 21:22

gkrishn · 27th October 2007, 21:32

Venkatesh, hope i got the tip in focus this time...

rjstyles69 · 27th October 2007, 21:45

Sure Rudra , please dont expect my PP to be as complex and splendid as yours

. I changed the color tone and added stroke's using PS. Here you go.

may be the legendary Youtan Poluo flower (probably a myth) or else something very interesting....

devp24, thanks a lot. Now let me read about it.

@Rudra-da, devp24 - these are indeed the Lacewing eggs and not the Youtan Poluo Flower.
I have had lot of these growing up on the window grill of my room, and asked a friend who is very much into the world of insects and he confirms it.

I did that one too, but the turn rate was much faster than the zoom rate ending up in a bad image.

@Mayavi, great pics overall. The night shot of the rocky place has a good LOTR setting feel to it. Love your pics man. In a city that hardly has a multi-storeyed building it must have been tough to get that view of the city by night. I liked that one too
