Inspiration hit me tonight while on another photowalk outside the hotel.  The night sky was crystal clear and the moon was shining bright.  While I was underneath a tree in the parking lot I looked up and saw interesting light patterns being created by the moon and the leafs.  I played around for a little bit with just taking steady shots up through the tree, but it was not until I tried dragging the shutter that I started to get something that I really like.  Today’s photograph was created by rotating the camera in my hand slowly during the one second exposure up through the tree into the night sky.
