Motion Theme

[Chris Dodkin]

Bryan - could imagine this shot in a golfing website or magazine - very nice.

As others have said, a tone check to counteract the green is all you need I think

 

[Pete Askew]

'Counteract the green'? There's a joke in there somewhere!!

 

[Chris Dodkin]

I knew someone would flag it up - I did rather club you over the head with it - just putting around with my humor - glad you got into the swing of things Pete...

 

[Bryan Hunt]

I've had a play around with it, is this better

[Pete Askew]

This is not the shot I had planned to submit but....

 

[Chris Dodkin]

Byan - looking good

Pete - nice one - like the slightly muted colour effect

 

[Pete Askew]

Thanks Chris. Notice the slight backward lean everyone has. There is a weird optical illusion on the Prague metro that makes people look like they are leaning. Going up they all look like ski jumpers!!

This is an old shot taken on a Mamiya 7II (I think with 65mm lens by the look of it) using Ilford Delta 400 pushed to ISO 1600 and printed on MGIV (16 x 12"). This is a small version of the scan I made a while back but I don't have the original file (I need to re-scan a load of B&W prints at some point). The main session with the dancers was done using a Hasselblad V with a PhaseOne P20 back but I then did some additional shots on B&W film (both a Nikon F3 and the Mamiya - probably the worst possible choice for a fast moving subject but, hey, I like a challenge ).

My First Movement photograph for A level.

 

[Pete Askew]

Now that is intersting Lauren. I like it. Now I'm going to ask the obvious question though. What is it? Can I see a copper pipe fitting?

 

[Paul Lange]

I thought it looked like a bunsun.

 

[Hamish Gill]

Me too, interesting shot!

 

[Lauren Hunt]

its a Bunsen Burner. Sorry, i actually forgot to write it. During a photography lesson we raided a year 7 class (11 years olds ish) with out cameras and started taking pictures.

been wanting to have a pop at the motion theme for a while but the oppertunity never came up!!!!
this was yesterday at a family bbq

these are the results!

 

[Chris Dodkin]

This is just a classic - would probably look great in B&W as well

So I get the feeling it's been a tad warm in Blighty then?

 

[Thomas brookes]

Yesterday was a scorcher 22 degrees yesterday!!! Yeah love that shot too I'll have a go in b&w!!!!

 

[Darren Bradley]

Wow, Thomas! Those are awesome! Love the first one, too, with the kids anticipating the splash.

 

[Thomas brookes]

Thanks buddy!!! Yeah I love that shot!! The calm before the storm! Or the calm before their great oaf of an uncle ruins the fun!!!
