Motion and taken this month ...I thought I was going to have to sit this one out

, as I don't get out a lot in this heat and all I have been shooting is the Humming birds around the house....trying to stop the "motion" of their wings .... well I am a bit slow but the

finally came on, here are 3 of my "motion" efforts

All three pictures were taken today (8/18/06). The first two were shot in B&W and the third was converted later.

Not as good as Leods, but it's my first H-bird so I'm including it.

Here is my only entry for this month (4 hours for one pic is enough). It is a picture of my father-in-law unloading a load of hay from the harrow bed. I set my camera up on a tri-pod and shot a series of about 15 photos. I then downloaded the pics and chose the final pic as my background pic. I then went to the pic that shows the middle of the process, selected the load of hay, copied it to the first picture, edited the degree of transparency and pasted it. I then repeated the process for the pic in the early stage of unloading. I then cropped the picture and left it at that. I knew in my mind what I wanted the pic to look like - I'm thrilled that it turned out that way.

Yes, the pic was taken today at about 11:00 AM. This in the final crop taken off the last of our 4 pivots.

Enjoy!

I changed my submission to a series I shot this morning. Banding wood ducks, catching them with a rocket net. It was really poor light, and a slow shutter speed.
