Movement - Shalia Boggs


Horses have been a form of movement for a long time.  Over a century ago, they transported people across our country.  Today, they are kept as companions more than anything.
Northern Montana has been my home since I was born.  Growing up on a ranch, I was always exposed to horses and cattle.  Riding horses to move the cattle was one of my favorite things to do.  Red was my horse, my baby.  He knew where we were at all times, and knew how to get us back home when I got us lost.
I photographed this horse at the DreamCatchers Equine Rescue Inc. which is a place that rescues horses.  At the rescue, there are over 100 horses available for adoption.  This horse, Tigger, was rescued by a friend and her daughter.
Much like the horse above, Red's legs were a dark red with one white sock.  Every time I get around horses, I remember him and the feelings of home.

I believe it is the trail that leads to the shot that gives life and movement.      

That is my philosophical thought for the day.

Now how did I get the shot? When I found this spot I did some test shots for composition but know the sun was to high by this time and I would have to return early the next day to get that wonderful morning glow. For the composition shots I moved around and even got in the water to see different points of view. That ended day one.

Day two I was on site by 5:45 with a sunrise due at 6:00.

Once on site I cleans some of the scene from dead branches. I also thought the scene was lacking color so I added the green branches down on the lower left for foreground.

Some will disagree with any altering of the scene. 

Sorry but I took my chances at offending you folk.

I used a tripod and viewed my shot through "Live View" on the back of my camera.  I used a wide angle lens, 10-17 with a polarizer filter. The filter allowed me to shoot into the pool to reveal the texture of the sandy bottom.
My Len was on manual focus and my camera on manual so I could control the look of the water.
I shoot at f/22 @ 30 sec. with an ISO of 160.  In post production I did the usual dodge and burn, saturation and here I have added a white vignette  to keep your eyes from falling off the page which I felt was happening.

There is it folks my blog on movement.

Funky: Andrea Frase


Lava Lamps are known for their funky side; colors, both inside and out, the effect, calmness of just watching the "lava" pass through the glass. All of the effects and then adding the black light gives it a new environment that anyone can enjoy. That party atmosphere is a great way to bring out your funky side and show your friends your new toys.

Motion: Mr Nichols Photography


A model, calm and content, stands still for preparations to be painted on for a photoshoot of exceptional quality. Powder floats through the air and coats the model in a thin layer of white. She is willing. She is patient. She is ready.

With power and enthusiasm an individual can soar over all obstacles. The right mind-set can push you to great achievements and concur ones greatest fears. Catching a moment in time captures this. What can you capture?

My female Russian Tortoise, Meadow, moves along steadily throughout her day. She is an incredibly curious animal, and loves to climb. Although she moves at a slow pace, she is careful and stops to think about every step she makes. Capturing her motion with a slow shutter speed makes her look much faster than she is. Perhaps one day she can beat the rabbit, but most likely only in a photo.

Sometimes we take her on walks outside. Her favorite thing to do is run (at tortoise speed) through the grass, and eat any clovers she finds.
She has the most unique personality of any pet I've ever owned.

Can you imagine a better place to relax after a long hike? Photographers use slow and fast shutter speed’s to capture motion and to give a whole different feeling to an image. This waterfall shot with a fast shutter speed wouldn’t be very pleasing to look at, but shot with a slow shutter speed it turns into an entirely different image. The smoothing of the water gives the image a mystical look and makes you want to jump right on in...just watch out for the rocks!

My original idea was to shoot in my car and then add some motion blur later on in photoshop. I pursued this idea for many minutes before becoming irritated at its contrived and boring nature. So, I decided to return to home base, and plan my next move. As I was driving through the traffic, I decided to take my camera off the tripod and shoot people in their cars. There was a woman picking her nose and a guy putting on chapstick. This was amusing, but not my intent for the day. Then, as I came to rest at a stoplight, I saw the streets before me clear out of cars, people, and bikes. I was thinking about how rare it is to see a cease of motion in downtown during rush hours. Finally the shot came back together as a single figure decided to cross alone, catching him in between his stride, moving alone through the concrete jungle.

Motion - Beate Burgess


A sweeping movement, an expansion that advances horizontally and progresses vertically towards an ambiguous horizon. A motion that lends itself to a perceptual variation of gestures and individual creations of our imagination.

On sunday mornings I do a lot of egg cracking at Panera Bread! I decided to just do a simple photo sequence on egg cracking. Before the egg is cracked, during, and after. Eggs are awesome. Taste good too.

MOTION

Apart from my normal fashion photography and consumer portraiture, I decided to start the quarter off with a fun beginning. I'm excited about this quarter and this photograph expresses my feelings almost to a T :) The rest of my work will reflect my main genre's but for now this expresses the idea of 'moving' forward and letting loose.

Model: Reid Kessler
Location: Art Institute Studio
Photographer: Lauren Larsen

This shot ended up quite opposite from my original idea. I wanted to show a snow boarder sliding down a rail with a blur, and then stopping him at the end with a strobe. Due to equipment failures I ended up taking a different route and panning my subjects. In the end I was happy with the change and must say these guys are fast!!

Motion: Emily Schulte


I captured this photograph of my dog, Summit, the other day while we were at the park playing frisbee.  With the concept of motion in mind, my goal was to capture her in mid-flight while she was jumping to catch her frisbee.  After many failed attempts, I finally got one that showed the motion involved in playing frisbee.
