Lots of flies here. But I remember, that there used to be so many flies at times, the dead flies were covering the floor of certain rooms of the castle some centimetres high. No really. It was horrible. This horse is called Ninja. But it's very nice and didn't kill anyone. ;)
A dog shakes off water as he reaches the top of the ramp getting out of the Ultimate Air Dog pool. The dog and owner carefully work out their timing for this event. The dog has about a 20' run down the dock to get up to speed and the owner times his throw of a dog toy so that the dog hopefully can catch it midair over the pool. the dog is judged by the distance he leaps out into the pool. The applause of the crowd is a good indicator of style points in his jump and whether or not they actually catch the toy

we did some cleaning in the bar area and David was ready to toss these drink shakers.... I on the other hand knew I could use them for something... and added them to my bottle art in the garden and love the shine they add!

If you’d like to read more details about how the shot is made see below. And for more of my kinetic photographs here’s my set, "Drawing with Light"

Kinetic: Relating to, caused by, or producing motion.
These are called “Kinetic” photographs because there is motion, energy, and movement involved, specifically my and the camera’s movements.
I choose a light source and/or subject, set my camera for a long exposure (typically around 4 seconds), focus on my subject and push the shutter button. When the shutter opens I move the camera around with my hands...large, sweeping, dramatic movements. And then I will literally throw the camera several feet up into the air, most times imparting a spinning or whirling motion to it as I hurl it upward. I may throw the camera several times and also utilize hand-held motion several times in one photo. None of these are Photoshopped, layered, or a composite photo...what you see occurs in one shot, one take.
Aren’t I afraid that I will drop and break my camera? For regular followers of my photostream and this series you will know that I have already done so. This little camera has been dropped many times, and broken once when dropped on concrete outside. It still functions...not so well for regular photographs, but superbly for more kinetic work.
The water droplets fly as a grizzly bear shakes water off her coat, Chilko Lake, British Columbia. Of course how effective that is when she's in shoulder deep water is debatable.

This is a view of the Cuillins seen from Elgol on the Isle Of Skye looking across Loch Scavaig on quite a stormy day. I love stormy days on Skye.

Sometimes the loon looks elegant and other times comical. Here he is shaking off after diving for food.

Sid shaking out after his well earned evening bath. For around 12 days he has been collecting food and leaving his fecal sacs on the old whirligig. While I was cleaning them off this afternoon Sid was laying on another 😆😅 We are expecting them to fledge any day now
The birdbath emptier!
Speaking of shaking it off, if you've found I'm not following you anymore, it's because I'm slowly deleting those people who never comment or fave my images. It does need to be mutual sometimes ok.
The Osprey, like many birds, shakes off the water like a wet dog after diving for a fish. Taken at sunrise with a beautiful sky.

We were walking around the lake and stopped at one of the small docks. While we were looking towards the other end of the lake, we heard a huge splash and looked in time to see this Osprey coming out of the water with a fish. She circled around and around us to give more shots but of course, they are backlit. We missed the dive, but love seeing them come out of the water and shake!

That's what this tern is doing after a dive. I went out early this morning, primarily to test a new focus setting on my camera for BIF. I was fortunate to come across a lot of terns feeding, just off the boat launch. I usually use Group/Spot but figured I'd try using more of my focus points and try 3D. In less than 1/2 hour, I took about 700 images, and over 400 of them were in critical focus. I couldn't manage that using Group, especially for smaller birds flying towards me. I did notice it was a bit harder to acquire INITIAL focus, but once it grabbed it stayed locked better. I may program my pv button (for my middle finger) for Group for initial focus, and the af-on (for my thumb) for the 3D just to see how that works. This was 1/2500 but I later changed to 1/3200 and I felt the results were a bit better for these birds. Anyway, it's fun to experiment a bit.
I seem to remember doing this before and having lousy results.

I'm under a spell again
Boy, I'm wondering why
This is not a game of love
But an emotional tie
I'm trying to figure out my heart (heart...)
But I can't offer you proof
Of why we should never be apart
And that is the
(That is the)
That is the truth
Oh...
Shake your love
I just can't shake your love
Shake your love
I just can't shake your love
A grizzly bear sitting in the water, shakes off water with flying water droplets. I'm not sure how effective it is try to shake off water when actually sitting in the water 😀. The bright turquoise water surrounding the bear is unaltered and unenhanced from the original file. Chilko River, BC.

After catching a fish, egrets shake their head up and down or sideways to move the fish into a position where they can swallow it.
To commemorate the never-ending wet weather, here's a drenched ruddy turnstone in desperate need of an umbrella. From my Texas travels last month ...
