Elegant Tern performing a fishing technique I dubbed splash & grab. Basically, instead of performing the classic dive, the tern pushes the water with its chest leading the fish to the water surface then grabs it. It goes fast!!!

Sketching Stuff Challenge: Splash Some Color
This time Charlie O’Shields walks us through his painting of a paintbrush with a background of splashed color. I went off on a complete tangent though. I happened to have splashed color all over some paper for another project, when I saw the challenge, and knew this was meant to be my answer to it. Instead of sketching before color was added, I looked at what I had splashed and decided it was a dragon breathing fire.

A female Northern Shoveler making a big splash at The Pool in Central Park, New York City.
The aptly named Northern Shoveler has a shovel-shaped bill that quickly sets it apart from other dabbling ducks. It is a medium-sized duck that tends to sit with its rear a bit higher out of the water almost like its bill is pulling its front hand down.
Breeding male shovelers are bold white, blue, green, and rust, but their most notable feature is their white chest and white lower sides. In flight, males flash blue on the upper wing and green on the secondaries (the speculum). Female and immature shovelers are mottled in brown and have powdery-blue on the wings that is sometimes visible on resting birds. Their very large orange bill is their most notable field mark.

Built this one a year ago, just stumbled upon the picture when I was organizing some files. I never uploaded it thinking I'd redo it (the legs/skirt part is dreadful), but didn't get around to it.

Good weekend to all!
My thanks for comments, visits... Everything!
I took some pictures of some water droplets yesterday for a first time in a while. It took quite a bit of time (and 989 photos on quick-shoot) to get the shot I wanted but I got it in the end. Happy Slider Sunday! :)
A splash of colour in this long exposure as the setting sun eventually decided to spread some colour amongst the grey. In a rush to change my location I placed my camera at an angle...hence the narrow crop. This is a 93 second exposure (I cut it short by mistake but I think it works well anyway)
52 Still Lifes: 14/52: Splash.
Lo primero os debo explicar la que he líado para hacer esta foto. Sola. Sola y sin disparador remoto. La mano izquierda en el disparador de la cámara, la mano derecha con la jarra echando la leche sobre la fresa y el palillo que veis en mi boca haciendo equilibrio para mantenerla en el lugar donde tenía el foco. Un show!!!
No he quedado satisfecha, solamente he salvado ésta, pero me resulta muy curioso haber coincidido con Ana ahora que he repasado el mural, sin saberlo. Me llamaron mucho la atención estos splashes que salpican sobre fruta, pero la verdad es que me ha costado la vida (y limpiar mucho, y ducharme yo también jajjaj)
A swimming labrador makes a splash at Frensham Little Pond.
Whilst setting up at this spot for some shots,this friendly dogs owner decided to start throwing a stick for it.
Everyone has a right to be here, so took a couple of the event.
Lawn Sprinklers open or just cars going by, one can never be too careful if there is water on the road; you may just get wet.
At 1/80th of a second shutter speed, I didn't really 'freeze' the droplets, but it still gives a nice backdrop as these gulls rest on the rocks.
Enjoy!

Wow...despite being sent to the Crematorium by the Ice Box with seven unanimous uncools, this shot just made it into Explore for July 2nd. Highest postion - 46. Booh-yah!
Joined a great new group called Get Pushed!! Round One, where you are paired with someone who gives you a photographic challenge ouside your comfort zone. This is the one the delightful and talented yrrgeirs sent me: "SPLASH! I´m challenging you to do a "SPLASH" shot. Coffee splash, milk splash, water..........or whatever comes to mind! Try it, might be fun! :-D"
It was messy fun, but I'm afraid I only had five minutes to spare from my exam marking, so the two shots are rushed and sooc. Coward that I am, I tried it first with water, and only then with hot chocolate. I think the water one is slightly better, though neither of them is brilliant. I shall try this again when I have time. BTW, I dropped a golf-ball sized tomato into the cups to get the splashes! Now you should all go join Jordy's group and Get Pushed!!
