A new effect

Hi,
Havent post for a long time. This time I post cos I discovered a new effect.
This photo is not edited. I could get this effect because of the zooming method.
Steps
1. place your camera on a stable place (e.g. tripod, table top)
2. Focus on the object you are shooting. In my case, its a stapler
3. Set the shutter speed to 1/1 sec or at least 1/2 sec.
4. Set the zoom on your lens at any focal length you like. (Adjust to the amount of the effect you want)
5. Use one hand to click the shutter trigger. Your other hand should be zooming out the lens.
You should get this effect.
For me, I was using the sigma 28mm-70mm f/2.8 lens. I went to 70mm click the shutter trigger and at the same time, I zoomed out to 28mm.
Try it out, its kinder fun (:
