Seanie,
try blocking the lens for a second or two just before each
adjustment, you'll get a different effect.
Lots of dots' dashes.

that really is a mad shot. If you were to try and replicate it today, would you remember what you did back then?
Frank,
that is a great idea, I'll definitely give that one a go next time I have the chance, thanks for the suggestion.

Yep, I have the details saved - here they are, I obviously had the zoom lens set at 135mm, but it slipped back to about 70mm over the course of the exposure, I remember my blu-tack fell off
Taken January 30th 2003 with a sigma 135mm lens at f5.6, 3 minute exposure on Fuji Provia 400F film. The zoom lens slipped back during the exposure giving a warp speed effect!!!

You couldn't deliberately take that if you tried!

P.S~~Keith THAT IS TRULY a "warp factor" image.
It looks like the cockpit view from the Millenium Falcon going into "hyper drive".
Makes a great wallpaper
Amazing.
