Once you see that the branches are in focus, it looks pretty good.

I really like this. It's nice to see something different, nice sense of movement. I can almost feel the wind blowing!

The motion is wonderful in my eyes....

Reminds me of the flip side of the John Lennon 45 INSTANT KARMA

it was Yoko singing the poem... 'Who has seen the wind'

Who has seen the wind
Neither you nor I
But when the trees bow down their heads
The wind is passing by

My keyboard batteries need changing as I am sure I posted something this morning re this thread. Anyway, love the motion blur. One never quite knows outcome of a long exposure when photographing moving objects or elements moved by the wind. One suggestion, next try a neutral density filter for an even longer exposure and see how that turns out.
