Motion

While traveling this week, I brought along the PowerShot S120 to try out. It's a great little camera with a lot of great features. It's pretty cool that it has full manual controls, including the ability to drag the shutter. I shot these out the back window of the terminal train at SEA-TAC.

While on our way home from Vegas yesterday, we decided to take a different route, up through Nevada.  We stopped for a late lunch in Ely.  There's not much in Ely, but there is a park, chock full of the really cool old playground equipment.  You know the kind, really fun, but apparently not safe to play on.  Well, we only got in a few minutes before the rain kicked back in, but I did manage to get in a bit of a study of motion.

While in Dallas, TX a few weeks ago for work, I was out for a morning wander with my camera when I came across a bicycle fun race.  It seemed like a good opportunity to try out some panning.  Having never done much panning before, I had no idea what I was doing, so it took some trial and error to get my settings right.  Overall, I'm fairly pleased with the results that I achieved, but definitely have some room for improvement.  Collectively, I think the images make for an interesting study of motion.
