Assignment 10 - Transformation or Motion

[xrays]

Motor Boat

Shot this past weekend while up north taking my boat out of the water for the winter. I thought about a slightly wider lens, but in the end I like the tight feeling this image presents, along with the slight motion blur of the water and backgroung. I managed to take a few shots, but this was the most pleasing. It wasn't easy shooting and driving, good thing there were no other boats on the lake.

[Abstract]

I took this photo of a band called "Cog" that played at my uni last night. They're somewhat big, although obviously not massive.

Breakdancer........also taken yesterday at the same university bar, except during the day.

Nice photos Abstract, I really like the Cog one. Well done capturing the motion.

Sorry I only got to mention it now, but I think that is a wicked motion shot Serpent. The sparks have a very fractal-like pattern to them. Great capture.

Wow.

That's an excellent photograph cookie. I'd like to have a big version for my desktop.

Not to be too nit-picky, but...there is no such thing as a Nikon 200D. There is, however, a Nikon D200.

Canon puts the number first and then the letter, such as "10D, 20D, 30D...." Nikon does it the other way around: D50, D80, D100, D200, etc.....

Well spotted, I have just changed it.

I was "stalking" this butterfly, trying to get a takeoff shot, but forgot to set my shutter speed to a faster setting. (that, and I tripped over a root as I released the shutter.)

Gee, that is a really interesting shot! I like it...

Connie, another beautiful shot, but there seems to be a focusing problem. Or am I wrong?

 

[Clix Pix]

I wondered if anyone would comment on the very narrow focus and depth-of-field.... !! Yes, I was shooting with the 70-180 macro upward into the leaves and with a macro lens the closer you get to the subject the more that affects the plane of focus and depth-of-field; as a result, there is very little in focus with this image, maybe a tiny little section of the leaf. I didn't have a lot of success that day. I liked the colors and the fact that it represents "transformation" so posted it anyway.... It definitely is not one of my finer efforts and won't ever wind up in my portfolio!

I hope the rider didn't also get transformed into scrap!

Dang, I was going to do the same thing with a wall clock!

Dang, I was going to do the same thing with a wall clock!

you can still do it because mine is not really sharp. and i have to work on the lighting as well.

Pyromania!

Every night, every hour on the hour, after dusk, on the south bank of the Yarra River, eight towers belch large gas flames. A very impressive sight, as they transform natural gas into water, carbon dioxide, and other trace substances.

Burn, baby, burn! Muahahahahahaha!
