Good morning!! It's Friday again, and you know what that means. Nope, no parties yet, wait till later, this way you can get me some pictures!!. Actually, go and party, and THEN get me some pictures, because we're talking about MOTION!!
Anything in Motion, cars speeding, birds flying, people running, you've got the idea! No Stills, i need MOTION!!
Go get them!!!
Please read rules before submitting your shot.
***
Your pictures should be fresh, taken on or after assignment date, and they should convey the topic. Please keep your shots no more then 600px on the longest side. Please ask for help in resizing your picture by DM or on another threat.
This is the one I've been waiting on. Thanks. A tip for those that have the ability to use al servo mode. Now is the time. If you can't use the programed sports mode if you have that. A faster shutter speed is a must here. Some of the best images show a slight blur say in the feet of a racing horse while the rest of the horse is sharp. This is a real challenging assignment but stands to be a lot of fun ya'll. I love to do kids in action. Thanks for this Sheps Mom.
I like this one too, and am up to the challenge. Just have to wait and see what comes out of my shots. I'm not a "motion" person, but this is a learning experience. Have to wait till all the moving things in my house come home. The dog's no good for this as he lays around all day! He's part of my "still life" collection!
For what it's worth.... When in photo class with this assignment the prof would not allow flags blowing in the breeze. He called it a cheap shot that has been over worked for to long. I've got some kittens practicing their killer abilities on one another and hope to stage them some how in a knock down drag out fight. I don't know how they survive they way they attack each other but in a few they are buddies again laying on top of each other napping. Have an idea or two but not sure they will cooperate. I'm getting antsy for this one. Maybe one of the storms will provide some flying objects in the next few days.
Nice assignment! I can't wait to give this one a shot (pun intended ). I think I'll try out the idea I had for the contest that I never got around to doing. But, I have sick kidlets right now so it may be a few days.
bibit, you can pick something on the way home, if you have your cam handy
Carbondated, why wait till dusk? Do you have cars driving around? They make good motion blur objects!!
I'm working from home today and the cam IS a distraction! I've been rummaging through the kids toy boxes, but they're too old. Darn, it's hard to work when I have a play thing staring at me!
My point & shoot has ACTION setting..is this what I should use?
Sounds like it. What does your manual say, Katie?
