Sometimes I get in my head and I can't get out. The pounding of my fists against the inside of my noggin doesn't help.

The photo and the text matches well together. Cate to explain how you created this shot? Did you strobe a flash as well as moved the subject or zoomed a lens?

The lighting was from a single overhead work light. To create the superimposed effect I used a 4 second exposure. Using my 70-300mm lens I focused in on the head at 300mm. Pressed the shutter release and held the shot to a count of 2 and turned the zoom ring as fast as I could out to 70mm.

Because I moved the zoom ring fast enough it didn't create the zoom effect I've used quite a bit lately. You can see faint zoom trails but you have to look for them.

Wow, cool image. I think this captures perfectly how you were in your head last night. Nice work, sweetie!
