If you go down to the woods today... you're in for a big surprise!
It seems like everyone is doing these blurry-forest shots these days... where you set a slow shutter speed and then pan the camera vertically while the shutter is open. The results are very much hit and miss... the secret is finding the right balance between the panning and shutter speeds... and moving the camera smoothly and perfectly vertically. You also need to find a forest scene with lots of contrast... side-lighting is ideal... but not essential.
Ever since I first read about this technique... I've been wanting to try one of these myself. But I wanted to try something slightly different... something a bit more sinister.... a blurry-forest shot with a twist. I'm not quite sure if I've pulled this off... but I had a lot of fun trying. :)
This one is much better when viewed large.

The Southern Screamer ('Chauna torquata') is a large, gray marsh bird, which despite its bill shape, is related to geese and other waterfowl.
They can be 83 to 90 cm (33 to 35 in) long and weighing about 4.4 kg (9.7 lb). They mate for life and their loud calls may be heard up to 3 km (2 miles away).
In this image you can see the carpal wing spurs which males use to fight for females and both sexes can use them for defense against predators.
I most often saw them perched in pairs at the tops of trees or flying in the sky while calling.

Perfect timing, fast on the trigger--that is all. We named this handsome cat Perro, which means dog in Spanish. His sister, may she rest in peace, was named Gato, which means cat in Spanish.

Winter time in Tennessee and a home without a family...cold and abandoned.
Three bracketed photos were taken with a handheld Nikon D7200 and combined with Photomatix Pro to create this HDR image. Additional adjustments were made in Photoshop CS6.

our youngest son Steve in colour.....we have worked together for over 14 years, sometimes I make him want to scream!
For a long time skateboarding was the most important thing in my life. For years my board was never out of reach. I ate it all up: the mags, the videos, the dress style, the attitude, the art. With this MOC I wanted to pay tribute to that.
The Screaming Hand is one of the most iconic images associated with skateboarding, drawn in 1985 by the most influential artist in the realm of skateboarding, Jim Phillips. Among so many things, he also created my favorite board, the Santa Cruz Natas board pictured.
I strongly urge you to check out this three minute video to learn more.

One of my favorite photo experiences happened this summer when this bug fella crossed a meadow and walked within 10 feet of my screaming all the way. Gotta love a bugling bull.
After a lengthy delay to work the yard at Effingham, A408 is back on the move and wasting no time as it screams through the little town of Farina, IL, with 108 cars for Centralia.
There were some amazing errors in Six panoramic images I posted,
Errors Included Seven Photographs of a Cairn into One panorama to create Six pictures of the South Western Cairn at Balnuaran of Clava

This note about the changes is partly here for me to remind myself which pictures had tree branches sprouting freely in the sky held there by clouds alone, amongst other bad edit signs glowing, flashing, jumping and screaming at me the editor that was obviously not in a good edit place.
The was singing quietly and I joined in as I saw the wonders opening up before me. Photoshop and I were suggesting ideas and the cairn was still an old, old song and so it went on. Then after colour and mono leaving out people and enhancing light and shade it was time for two paintings to be made. Suddenly Six versions are ready and the song goes with them to share with you wherever you are.

Kylo Minifigure is having a very nice day. He found some Disney Series Minifigures to bother and bully.
He is in the process to tell how is the greatest badass in any of the “Overlords of Entertainment” universes when a figure emerges from the vegetation.
It’s Yoda Funko Pop!
“Stop this you must!” Orders the venerable Master.
Kylo is always very afraid of Yoda but this time he laughs.
“Haha! You are pathetic, old green! You can’t harm me! You have no articulation and you can’t even move! Haha!” Says Kylo.
“Judge me by my articulations do you? Hm? Mmmm” Yoda replies.
“You should not. For my ally is the Force. And a powerful ally it is…”
“Shut up- Kylo interrupts him- You are getting ridicule! How many times do I have to tell you? You can’t even move! You shouldn’t even be here! You are here only because who writes these stories hates me and keeps..”
“Annoying being you are” Yoda says before unleashing the power of the Force.
Kylo is tossed around unable to stand against the powerful Jedi Master.
“Ouch! I really hate who writes these stories! You hear me: I hate you! Vaadeeer help me! Vaadeer!” He screams as he is thrown against the rocks and over the plants.
I hope you like this photo :)
May the Force be with You :)
In the movies, dramatic scenes are often embellished by an emotional, equally dramatic musical score. Like a fire, for example. Looking beyond this frame, a grown man sobs silently, families watch as a neighborhood restaurant burns furiously, and firemen battle valiantly - not to the tune of a lone trumpet, violin, or choral arrangement, but rather to a deafening, surreal, almost eerie silence.
Aside from the occasional whir of the firemen's ladder pivoting into position, or the low hum of water shooting off into an abyss, it's so quiet that a benign whisper (or the subtle splash of the captain's boots as he marches around the scene) can break your concentration on a shot. Even the fire itself screams - like the rage of a mute dragon. I think that's what I like about shooting these kinds of moments: the unfolding of raw drama and emotion that simply cannot be scripted or scored...

No cars, no people no bikes....NO BLINDS! Sometimes you get lucky other times not. Still you really need sound to appreciate this image anyway.
