Spring thaw finally!

I believe that the Flickr community is for sharing and it is not my intention that this photo comes with no information. The reason that none is shown is that I have edited it in Photoshop and have not learned how to save or export the photo with what is equivalent to the EXIF file that is saved in LrC. None of the Adobe info websites or instructional videos that I have viewed seemed to have helped. If there is a way to do that, kindly let me know. Much appreciated.

Room with self-portraits at the Paula Modersohn-Becker exposition in the Schirn in Frankfurt. The reduced lighting led to longer exposure times with a closed-down lens, creating motion blur.

The art of forward motion is falling over, but before you hit your nose on the ground, alternate feet stop you....... think about it !!

When Little Owls move long distances, they fly of course (as all birds do come to that)(ok not all birds) but when they are on short haul stuff, they walk or run ( the same again for all birds)......... but in all my years of watching birds, I have never seen any other bird do this with such style as a Little Owl :o)

OK, maybe a Puffin comes close LOL

Thanks Maria. I like this Group "Smile on Saturday" so much. I am forever being challenged. I had never done this before. In between appts Tuesday in city I tried my hand at it. I managed a few ok shots, but like this one for group. Thanks Maria for pushing me to forever learn. HSoS everyone. 😊🙋‍♀️

Special greetings to my English friends - do you still remember this one? Way back in the good old days in 1990; Germany won the championship, but England sang the better song ;-)

New Order - World in Motion (1990)

P.S.: I was always wondering why a football song talks about love - so I did some research. Here is what I found:

When the FA (English Football Association) heard "love's got the world in motion", they asked the band to replace "love's" with "we've". The band refused. "It's an anti-hooligan song", they said.

Looking at all the trouble everywhere around us these days, I'd wish there was more love among men.

Love's got the world in motion - without the world will stop turning.

getting back to the garden (again ;-)

Another favourite photograph taken by a visiting friend, a wonderful photographer, in winter 2018, and processed by me this week.

The image posted below in the first comment box is also from the series of images taken by my friend during winter 2018.

Sorry about the previous confusing intro!!! :-( Tho I wish I could perform the magic editing imagined... it's beyond me.

Last winter (2019) there was an abundance of wild food and it was also a very mild winter.. so no birds needed feeding here. This year there is real winter... and to my amazement, after 20 months away, the silvereyes returned.. and remembered me. Well... they remembered peanut butter ;-) On their first day back some even nibbled it from my fingers. Now they come to meet me. The brave ones land on my hand to eat, the clever ones find the peanut butter jar in my other hand :-) On the first day one jumped repeatedly on my head but not at all since. Another landed on my lens barrel, looked me straight in the eye, and told me to get on to more important things :-)

here's to patience, trust and peanut butter

happy free from fences friday ;-)

A pair of Ring Necked Ducks are on the move during a March snowfall.

I normally would shoot these BIF shots at a higher shutter speed, but these went from relatviely static subjects to fast moving ones very quickly and with the overcast low-light conditions I was shooting with, I was only at 1/500 and didn't have time to adjust. I honestly found the blur in the wings helped in conveying the element of movement though in the image.

Thanks for viewing and have a great day!!

Smile on Saturday ~~ Motion Blur

Transformations~

Saw this duck flying over the water, hit by the morning sun. Got sharp focus on that eye, but the shutter speed was slow for the wing motion (ducks flap fast, due to those small wings relative to their weight). Still, kinda liked the effect!
