Fun with dandelions

Forehead

This is just a tungsten and fluorescent shot of a dandelion gone to seed. The other three I'm posting I'll explain as I go, but I was trying to "rise to the challenge"--Challenge 63 (long-exposure shots). Though I don't think this subject has quite enough "pizazz" for a Challenge entry, I spent enough time that I wanted to do SOMETHING with them.

This shot was taken with 8 seconds exposure. During that time, I bounced a red laser off my hand (to spread the light out) for 2 seconds, and bounced a blue diode (NOT a laser--those blue lasers cost some BUCKS yet!) off my hand for four seconds.

No adjustment to the focus was done, but you'll see that different colors seem to have an efffect on clarity. Or is it just me?

Here's another 8-second exposure. During that time, I bounced a red laser off my hand for 5 seconds after bouncing a green laser off my hand for 1 second.

All these Dandelion shots were done last night, BTW.

This last one was another 8-second exposure. During that time, I bounced a green laser off my hand for 1 second, and bounced a blue diode off the same hand for 4 seconds. Though the focus wasn't adjusted after the first manual setting...

...is it just me, or does the teal-colored shot here look somehow clearer than the other two long-exposure shots?

I Prefer This Shot

Although the other 3 shots sort of look like fireworks displays they are dull in comparison to this shot ....... Skippy (Australia)
