This afternoon I played with fast shutter speeds. The intention was to capture the burst of a balloon.

 

I was assisted by my daughter Naomi who was instantly promoted to ‘Head of Detonation’ and who also came up with the science of larger quantities of coloured water in larger balloons leads to more dramatic effect. Well done and thank you, Naomi.

 

So after a few attempts to practice timing and to get an effective shutter speed we achieved these four photos. My favourite is the last one that we took (shown above) because we managed to capture the water in the balloon desperately holding its shape just after the collapse of the latex balloon and just before gravity pulled it to the floor. Ninja timing skills sums it up!! I know the backdrop is a bit disappointing but Mrs B refused to let me use her best Irish cotton duvet cover!

CP SD40-2 5947 leads 486 east through Gurnee, IL. Don't let looks trick ya, this guy was moving at a pretty respectable pace.

This is one of the hot rods caught in a burst of speed driving up Central Avenue In Phoenix, Arizona. The Cruise on Central is a bi-annual tradition and I must say a great time was had by all. An unusual subject for me, but thanks to Desert Bug for getting me out there shooting with him. We worked at it from mid-afternoon and stayed till about 7:30 pm, I bet that the festivities went on much longer, I like this shot since I was working on panning with my camera. Best view is most definitely large.

A Virgin Voyager awaits departure from Preston on 21.12.16 whilst working to London, whilst DRS 68023 'Achilles' waits in platform 6 having arrived with the 5Z21/0931 ex - Crewe CS ECS. The 'Christmas Lunch' tour would then depart as the 1Z20/1138 to Derby, with 68016 'Fearless' on the rear.

Slow rear curtain sync with panning.

The suburban platforms at Waterloo on the afternoon of 3 April 2012 - the shower clouds so markedly absent during the past several months gather to provide welcome, but not useful, ralnfall on the late afternoon of 3 April 2012. A class 455 formation, led by 5724, arrives to form the first of the two semi-fast Epsom line workings of the evening peak - the 1724 to Dorking, omitting Motspur Park, Stoneleigh and Ewell West stations.

Fast/slow shutter speed in JRN 310

Fast for Justice - Day 3: WAT's Martin Gugino offered the peace sign and informational leaflets to passing drivers on Constitution Avenue.

man, like that kfc experience, i could have swore i liked it before. decided on a chipotle grilled stuff steak burrito (though personally i dunno why any thought process had to be made, since they all contain the same six ingredients, give or take 1 item). it was all dough, too much rice and beans, and not enough meat. i am never running for the border again.

How fast time flies

I just love this Ghoulia's extra outfit! She's been hanging on my desk ever since I got it ;)
