Very nice. Did you zoom in the entire focal length on this shot?

[Cornsilky]

And random question: What does the EXIF data look like when you do this? Does it record the focal length at the beginning or end of the exposure? just curious if anybody knew

Cornsilky,

The exif data records the focal length at the beginning of the shot. In this case, that was 22mm. Unfortunately, the end point of the zoom is not recorded but I think that it was close to the 40 mm end point of my lens. When I use this technique, I try a number of different zoom intervals and pick the one that comes out the best.

Thanks to everyone for your kind comments.

Good idea...I think I'll give this technique a shot (double-pun unintended) as well. Thanks for sharing!
