Whirring fan blades - a photo on Flickriver

            During her recent and extended visit to Utah, my wife somehow acquired a pocket-size fan, which provided very little in terms of practical value, but plenty of entertainment. The fan is battery-powered, and probably cost no more than $3.00, if that. (Her birthday came and went during the trip, and I think this was given to her as a gift.) The blades on the fan are equipped with small, multicolored lights, which give an interesting effect when the fan is turned on. I found it fascinating, which prompted Sheila to repeat yet again her frequent remark that "simple minds are easily entertained." (Funny, but I have never heard her say that to or about anyone other than myself.)

The other night I took the fan into our computer room, mounted it on the corner of the table, and took several pictures. Because I held the camera in my hand, it is possible that I moved during exposure, although given the nature of the photo, that is unimportant. No flash was used, and aside from cropping, this picture was not edited in any way prior to posting.
