the last image is a 15 second exposure of some LED's. i was experimenting with the camera. pretty sure i had a few drinks cause i was dancing, with the camera shutter open, pointing the camera at my then "entertainment system". the bright LED's from my xbox, a router and some other device left these incredible streaks on the camera sensor.

the image reminds me of coming out of a struggle - or chaos. there is some sort of butterfly or bird rising above while still in the wreckage.
some of these images are real metaphors of my life. but i don't always get the meaning right away.

That Ferris wheel looks it's going really fast! cool right? i set up a tripod and took several exposures where the camera was open for 30 seconds. it produced this effect.

yes i use photoshop. it's mostly to optimize an image and print them - i like to add a touch of contrast, but most of my images are pretty close to how i shoot them.
iphoto is great for quick black and whites and other quick fixes. i use it too.
