A 1.25" wheel from a miniature plastic bicycle. It was difficult to turn the wheel with my finger and take the picture with my other hand. But it was fun and I don't always take these pictures.
Macro Mondays: "Motion Blur"
On/Off - Thank you very much for your visit and comment! I really appreciate it!
Motion blur with a feather. A very small fluffy feather found on the patio today. HMM:) Thank you all for your kind comments.
Luckily these two Geese had an almost identical take off speed., meaning both their heads panned to a reasonable sharpness even at 1/50 SS
Not always easy to get a good "Intentional Blur". Tried a lot of moving things, and the easiest is using a moving object. Thank you Janet for this theme, learned something new (again).
A gloomy day, a fleeting journey, almond blossoms left behind. Between clarity and blur, a moment caught between two worlds.
Detail of London Metropolitan University's Graduate Centre on Holloway Road, Islington. The building was designed by architect Daniel Libeskind and was opened in 2004.
After taking some exposures of the Philly skyline from the South St. bridge - I came across Grace Tavern. This tavern is a small neighbor bar just off South St. Since my daughter watched the Eagles win Super Bowl LII here, I decided to snap off a few images.
While working out the exposure and focusing, I noticed two people walking toward the bar from my left. Quickly, I shot off an exposure. Although I don't typically try to capture people in my images, it seemed like an opportunity to catch a little motion. Luckily, it worked out - kind of funny that it looks like both have one leg.

Actually not ;-) Recently, I did another experiment similar to my DIY square bokeh, but this time I cut out a thin slit instead of a square. Hence, the bokeh consists of stripes which results in a motion blur like effect. The only drawback of this method is that the slit has to be pretty thin in order to not see the stripes, but the smaller the slit the greater the amount of diffraction is. Thus, you loose a lot of sharpness when you cut out a very thin slit. Furthermore, a thinner slit gives a greater DOF which means that your background has to be far away to get the desired look. Anyway, I hope you like my little creative experiment ;-)

A shot that sums up the constant energy and motion of a big sea running. Motion Sickness id by Damien Jurado. I'm off doing a High Brown Fritillary management assessment today to prepare for contractor work.
With this colorful photo, which was deliberately taken with this motion blur, I wish you all a wonderful Poppy-Monday and of course the rest of the week.
We can see a lot of ourselves by looking at the poppy flowers and grasses moving back and forth in the summer wind.
As a rule, we too are firmly anchored to the earth, even if only because of our personal values. Each of us has something within us that is immovable. No matter what is happening around and no matter how much the wind of life pulls and shakes us. We shape these values ourselves. Based on the experiences we have in our lives. The strongest of them usually come from our childhood.
Most of the time, these roots serve our protection and stability. With them we are able to withstand even the harshest storms, to stand against the wind or, if necessary, to bend to it at times. Thanks to the anchor, we always stay where and who we are despite everything and are able to pick ourselves up again and again.
But sometimes we realize that our values, or rather the way we weight them, prevent us from developing ourselves. That we are trying to bloom in the wrong place, so to speak. Then it is up to us (because no one else can do this for us) to change our anchor point.
The key is always to be aware or make ourselves aware of what makes us flourish and what makes us wither.
And so I wish you all a stable and at the same time dynamic week. With lots of sun and fresh wind.
Mit diesem farbenfrohen Foto, welches bewusst mit dieser Bewegungsunschärfe fotografiert wurde, wünsche ich Euch allen einen wunderschönen Mo(h)ntag und natürlich auch eine ebensolche Restwoche.
Durch den Anblick die Mohnblüten und Gräser, die sich im Sommerwind hin und her bewegen, können wir viel von uns selbst erkennen.
Auch wir stehen, in der Regel, fest verankert auf der Erde und sei es auch nur auf Grund unserer persönlichen Werte. Jeder von uns trägt etwas in sich, was unverrrückbar ist. Ganz gleich was um und herum geschieht und ganz gleich wie sehr der Wind des Lebens an uns zieht und rüttelt. Diese Werte prägen wir selbst. Und zwar auf Grund der Erfahrungen, die wir in unserem Leben machen. Wobei die stärksten davon meist aus unserer Kindheit stammen.
Meist dienen diese Wurzeln unserem Schutz und unserer Stabilität. Mit Ihnen sind wir in der Lage auch härtesten Stürmen zu trotzden, uns dem Wind entgegen zu stellen oder uns ihm, wenn erforderlich, auch zeitweise beugen. Durch den Anker bleiben wir trotz Allem immer wo und wer wir sind und sind in der Lage uns immer wieder aufzurichten.
Doch manchmal stellen wir fest, das unsere Werte oder besser gesagt die Art, wie wir sie gewichten, uns an der eigenen Entfaltung hindern. Das wir sozusagen am falschen Ort versuchen zu blühen. Dann liegt es an uns (denn kein anderer kann dies für uns tun) unseren Ankerpunkt zu verändern.
Das Entscheidende dabei ist immer, sich bewusst zu sein oder sich bewusst zu machen, was uns blühen und was uns welken lässt.
Und so wünsche ich Euch allen eine stabile und gleichzeitig dynamische Woche. Mit viel Sonne und frischen Wind.

Even though I was just scouting this view at the time, I could not leave here without taking a shot. I envisioned vertical orientation for this scene; however a horizontal composition would include more of the top of the falls. Therefore, I decided to attach my B&W 110 filter, and attempt a long exposure. My intention was to add a surreal effect to this daytime capture, by turning the waterfall into slow motion mist.

A solitary white swan glides effortlessly across a mirror-like surface, framed by the golden hues of fall. The contrast between the dark water and vibrant foliage creates a minimalist yet striking composition — a quiet moment of elegance in nature’s seasonal rhythm.

Eleganz im Flow
Ein weißer Schwan gleitet wie von selbst durch die dunkle Wasserfläche – minimalistisch, ruhig, fast meditativ. Die herbstliche Kulisse mit goldenen Blättern setzt einen warmen Kontrast und verleiht dem Moment eine zeitlose Ästhetik.
I really wasn't going to post this, as nothing is really in focus, but I decided I liked the sense of extreme motion of the wings. It is purely the result of a too slow shutter speed and what I think is some serious rolling shutter effect from the fully electronic silent shutter used in this shot.
These Paddle Borders are neither board, nor without motion. Instead, they move through the colours of Smuggler Cove with the grace of flight. Their slightly blurred motion illustrates both movement and direction, as they slowly proceed through a kaleidoscope of colour.
By no means at it's peek of vibrance, this area still surrounds its viewers with the visual delights of nature. And, without urban sounds, it is as quiet as this image suggests.
