Weekly Photo Challenge No. 252 - Something Moving

[Sepiana]

Hi everyone,

Would you like to participate in the Weekly Photo Challenge? Just take a photo that is your interpretation of the theme and post it in this thread.

- Your photo(s) should be your own, i.e., they should not have been taken by someone else.
- Photoshopping is allowed but should be kept to the basics only rather than a total transformation.
- Grab your camera, experiment, and, most of all, have fun.

NOTE

This week’s theme was a joint suggestion by Dennis and Brenda -- dennis9 . (Thanks, Dennis and Brenda!) In their own words, this is what this theme is all about.

Something moving -- trying to capture motion in a still shot

[billz]

While I can think of a few ways to address this cnallenge., playing with shutter speed and ND filters is one of my favorite things to do. You may see a couple from me this week. ;-) This was shot this morning about 5 minutes after seeing the challenge. ISO 100, f8, SS 0.8 sec, 3-stop ND.



Thanks for the theme Sepiana, Dennis and Brenda!

I'd be taking these anyway, so I may as well post them, right??
ISO 100, f11, SS 0.3 sec, 3-stop ND.

Using a slow shutter (as Billz), I was hoping for both blurred background and flapping wings. Alas, the clouds rolled in and turned the sky to mush and I could not catch and bird lower with trees in the background. So this weak attempt will have to do for now. More to come ... maybe.

Hardly high-speed moving.
Two strutting geese. Odd part was I took 4 photos of this synchronized walking pair and the back bird had its eye/s closed the whole time...well, maybe 2 seconds. Perhaps the back eye was open.

I tried to get the trees to move, but they wouldn't. So I moved the camera instead.
ISO 100, f11, SS 1/13 sec

Ball rolling down an incline ... 
Multiburst images at 1/30 second. Merged in PPSE 2018 Photomerge "group shot" ... not entirely pleased. I could not find a way to merge these in Elements+

I used a variable ND filter to lengthen the exposure to 1.5secs at f20 on a bright sunny day. Likely should try again with a shorter exposure but did make two attempts so click on the image for some extra motion.  Animated in PS once I remembered how to do it!

A fun theme and I'm going to have to try some more.

Great idea, Tony.

[billz]

I tried to get the river to stop moving.
ISO 100, f9, SS 30 sec, 13-stop ND.

Plenty of movement in what is usually a quite small cascade in our local park - the result of a very wet February.

A bit of an experiment  - taken at 1/25 sec while moving the camera vertically.

I wish I had seen Bill & Tony's images earlier. 

This was moving . . . honestly.

If at first you don't succeed - then wait till there is a strong wind blowing,
Did not need to use any effects.
