The man in the foreground is haranguing the crowd about a possible conspiracy theory surrounding the terrorist attacks of 11th September 2001.
The motion blur demonstrates the energy he is using to get his message across. The focus is on the sign in the background which expresses in written form this man’s diatribe.

my husband's birthday. it can be hard to think about one birthday right after the next. in fact, it stresses me out and he always gets "shafted". we opted for a fabulous meal at home. yummy beer, cheese/crackers, and salmon. cheesecake for dessert.
this man i married. i am so blessed. here he is with our kids, working on "birthday card puzzles". they are like this with him. all over him. he is this kind of dad.... ok with that and so involved in their lives.
day 36
[looks better in the lightbox - type "L" on your keyboard]
the instructor we worked with during training said Augie had the best play bow she'd ever seen. even so, she's still got "the eye". especially when I have Ducky as my P.A.
this shot is more in the direction I wanted to go last time, with more of a dark background and some selective light; and I took a bit more time with this week, having just gotten a new toy critical piece of photographic equipment: a 10 meter ETTL extension cord, for those times when I just want to have more control over the flash at a distance.
Augie was pretty good about it, too, as my dark fleece blanket backdrop is fairly narrow, and so she's posed on one of our chairs. we used Ducky to try some action/catch shots, but I couldn't move back far enough with my 35mm lens, and then she kept going into her bow between tosses, so I focused more on that.
technicals:
I put a snoot on the (Canon 430EX) flash and mounted it overhead angled towards Augie's head, and used the ETTL flash metering, which worked well to keep the background dark and not blow a huge flood of light over everything. I like the lines I got out of this lighting and pose, and the catchlights from the windows that showed up despite the flash and the high shutter speed (1/640).
