View Full Version : January Photo Comp 2011 Theme: Motion : VOTE OFF

Well here we go again and the opening theme for 2011 shall be, as per thread title, Motion. Being able to imply movement in a "frozen" frame is one of the most powerful things you can do with a photograph, so gentlemen start your cameras and show us some motion.

Here's a little something for inspiration:

http://farm4.static.flickr.com/3276/4041972465_400aaae9cf_z.jpg?zz=1

For the geeky heads out there, this shot was taken with a D90 and 18-55 VR kit lens, then slightly cropped and balanced for colour and tones.

Good luck!

Congrats on the win. I have changed my entry to this pic of 3 birds in different stages of a dive for some bread i threw into a pond. Taken with a Canon G12 and this pic has been shown several months ago.

Lancaster Bomber NX611 'Just Jane' about to start a taxy run at the Lincolnshire Aviation Heritage Centre, East Kirkby, September 2010. An excellent museum to visit and just up the road from the Battle of Britain Memorial Flight at Conningsby, the home of the flying Lancaster, 5 Spitfires and 2 Hurricanes.http://i1131.photobucket.com/albums/m549/daveangel20/2010_0943EastKirkbyVisit_0014.jpg

Canon EOS1000D with the light aperture closed right down to F.22 and the slowest possible shutter speed to get the 'disc' effect on the propellers.
