June 2010 - Photography assignment - Motion (in motion or stopped in action)

Wonderful wonderful images!
very impressive people :clap:

Here's one I shot just yesterday....birds are SO challenging.
Exif data - F-13 1/8 iso 200

and one more
Exif data - F5 - 1/30 ISO 200

Awesome additions, Marko. Very nice :clap:

I like the seagull, Marko. There seems to be a bottle in that one as well. And some other mysterious things.

Also found on my http://www.photography.ca/Forums/f22...how-10000.html thread. Race participants Reed Rocket and Corvette.

Raining again yesterday. I was trying out spot metering with the sky behind the subject.

Our yellow lab loves the water but usually during baths the bather gets a bath also.

I finally did it...set up the camera, tripod and remote to capture our furry visitors. I thought these shots just might be okay for this assignment.

A couple of amorous tree swallows:

lol, he looks like he's saying 'hey, how you doin?' ;)

Shot this slide into 2nd today at the game.

Awesome to see the variety of photos and way people are thinking for this assignment! Some very cool shots in here!

That second one is awesome, MA. :thumbup::thumbup:

More excellent additions - loving the variety as MA said :highfive:

Thanks Iggy

That first one of yours looks like the surf is going to come down on the two boarders. It is pretty cool looking as well as the second, M.A.

That border was actually right under that wave and got soaked ... several times. The other person is a friend of ours, she was further up the rocks with a camera also and safely out of the way.

On the swings...

That's well done Indy!!

I like the mood of the first one, MA. The one surfer with a posture of taking on the ocean, win or lose.

Thanks Q1 :)

at least this month I remembered...

Nice shot Russ!

Good stuff everyone - Nice to see your post Russ!

Here's another from a few days back - looked like a vortex to me :)

Caught this one today at lunch...

A jelly bean bike! I used to see a lot of those on Highway 17 through the Santa Cruz mountains. Some had more sense than others.
