I was headed for Sedona and noticed this old VW Bug coming around pretty quick. I was at 65 so was surprised to see him moving so fast and naturally fumbled the camera and then it promptly shut itself off rather than give me a chance at another shot.
It's been a while since the first set of flowers came out. Now that the second set is popping, the first set has definitely past its prime.
Spectators come to San Francisco US Navy Blue Angels Air Show in Oct each year, seeing the Blue Angels in action will be an experience you will never forget. These elite pilots fly fighter jets at a top speed of 700 miles per hour. The lowest speed is 120 miles per hour.
These photographers are just a few photographer trying to capture Blue Angels in action.
This is a photograph from the annual Ardagh Moydow Glen Community Games 5KM and 10 Mile road races, fun runs, walks and challenges which were held in the heritage village of Ardagh, Co. Longford, Ireland on Saturday 30th December 2017 at 13:00. This year's race featured the change from last year's race where the race seen the introduction of chip timing, a new start and finish in the middle of the village at the community center and, a slightly amended route.
We have an extensive set of photographs from the race start and the finish on our Flickr photostream set at www.flickr.com/photos/peterm7/albums/72157688852560892
The 10 mile race takes in the local 'Ardagh Mountain' which is a 1 mile continuous climb starting at the 2.5 mile mark of the 10 mile race. There is, of course, then the reward of a long down-hill stretch after the summit. The remainder of the race is The 5KM race takes a loop around the heritage village of Ardagh. Overall this is a very well organised race with accurate courses, good marshalling and traffic control and excellent after race refreshments. The 10 mile race is one of the longest road races held during the Christmas period anywhere in Ireland and has appeal to runners who want to add a longer distance race to their festive calendar of running.
The weather at this year's race was very cold and windy. The rain managed to stay away but a very cold northerly breeze certainly made conditions cold. Whatever wind advantage there was for the runners was not experienced until the second half of the race. In 2014 there was very frosty icy weather and last year in 2015 participants were given a very very windy day with heavy rain at the finish of both races. The 2016 event seen very suitable weather for road racing.
Ardagh is probably County Longford's most picturesque village with many historical and architecturally important features. It is located about 6 miles from Longford town.

I ran in the race - but my photograph doesn't appear here in your Flickr set! What gives?
As mentioned above we take these photographs as a hobby and as a voluntary contribution to the running community in Ireland. Very often we have actually ran in the same race and then switched to photographer mode after we finished the race. Consequently, we feel that we have no obligations to capture a photograph of every participant in the race. However, we do try our very best to capture as many participants as possible. But this is sometimes not possible for a variety of reasons:
►You were hidden behind another participant as you passed our camera
►Weather or lighting conditions meant that we had some photographs with blurry content which we did not upload to our Flickr set
►There were too many people - some races attract thousands of participants and as amateur photographs we cannot hope to capture photographs of everyone
►We simply missed you - sorry about that - we did our best!
You can email us petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com to enquire if we have a photograph of you which didn't make the final Flickr selection for the race. But we cannot promise that there will be photograph there. As alternatives we advise you to contact the race organisers to enquire if there were (1) other photographs taking photographs at the race event or if (2) there were professional commercial sports photographers taking photographs which might have some photographs of you available for purchase. You might find some links for further information above.
Don't like your photograph here?
That's OK! We understand!
If, for any reason, you are not happy or comfortable with your picture appearing here in this photoset on Flickr then please email us at petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com and we will remove it as soon as possible. We give careful consideration to each photograph before uploading.
I want to tell people about these great photographs!

My particular... brand of photography relies heavily on timing: right time, right place, right subject, right circumstance. Those converge and generally I'm going to get a photo I like.
And with Daniel, I don't think that could've been more perfect.
When I first encountered him, he was just lounging against a tree. A couple fishing poles at the lake shore. I fully intended to just walk by. Until, I swear, he sprang up to his feet from laying down and ran to the pole. It soon became apparent what was on the other end of the line.
After nearly losing his footing entirely on the edge of the shore, he stepped down into the water. I set my camera down and told him to hand me the pole so I could try to reel it closer to the shore for him to grab it.
Took a few tries as it was putting up a bit of a fight, but he finally got hold of it.
The timing chain from a Honda sportsbike engine.
Notice how each link of the chain is composed of 4 or 5 piled-up segments... Thus, at every pin, 9 such segments bear the load. This allows the use of smaller pins and makes for a lighter, more compact chain that can carry a lot of tension. This chain is used inside the engine to ensure that the movements of the different components are perfectly synchronized.

Today's manmade/architectural shot comes from Mulberry St in Montgomery, Al. After wandering around Old Cloverdale and doing several shots in different locations, I finally had Tim pull over as we were leaving and I snapped a few with my new star filter. I really wanted to get something with the star filter, but everywhere else I shot just didn't have enough light sources to really produce any effect. After setting up across the street from this bakery, I realized that if I was going to get a starburst I was going to have to wait for passing cars. I got really lucky with this shot because the car in front was turning at the corner I was set up at and was fortunately one of those people that loves to turn as slowly as possible :) (This is one of the first times I've appreciated someone doing this ;) I also find it lucky that the car stuck behind them was a nice lexus with fog lights on. Just a classic image and after a crop of the top left and a run through a fuji velvia filter in lr2, this is what I got. (I did use my tripod so that I could easily maintain the composition while waiting for cars). 1/125@f/2.5 ISO200 FL:50mm

Taking down the pictures, I found the timings from me cooking our Christmas dinner the year after my mom died. The spiky writing is my little brother making me smile.

I've seen so many pictures of this lake, and most of them I felt didn't do it justice. I hope this one does. Two key differences from most pictures I've seen of Kinney Lake: everyone seems to shoot it in the morning, which I figured would be the best time as well, but the light's a bit strong after sunrise. This was taken in the late afternoon, when the light was quite lovely. The other issue is that the mountains around the lake are so big that the standard approach is to use the widest lens possible. But I found a telephoto approach brought home how big these mountains are.
