Re: (SI) Motion appears to be up...

All of the images meet the mandate. My favourites for
completely different reasons are Ken Nadvornick's train
on the crossing and Jim Kramer's dog running in the shallows.

Ken demonstrates the power of a well planned photo shoot
that results in an image that anyone should be proud of.
Jim's image has more human emotion of a frozen moment in
time capturing the sheer joy of a dog in motion. Both images
pass my criterion if hung on a wall will I still enjoy them a
month or a year from now. Both tell a story, the starting
line for the imagination.

No question dog in motion, meets the mandate. The dog's
face says it all, " I am happy to be here" . There is a lot of
detail, the kind of picture that you don't get tired of.

Meets the mandate. This image has some depth of field
problems. The eye is drawn to the focus point between
the two boats. The powered pontoon boat is out of focus.

I am not so sure about this one

I quite like this image. It is clear that the runner is in
motion but the left foot is sharply infocus frozen against
a moving background. The first impression is there is
something different here. Well done

Adsel Adams was right. Master black and white first. There
is a story in this image. There is also an interesting story of
planning in the details provided. It is the kind of image that
tells you that good photography doesn't just happen. Ken, you
know its technically well done and I am not skilled enough
to judge. Very well done.

A water soaked cormorant taking flight. A cormorant struggles
into the air. It is still dragging on the water. This is a tough image
to get both bird and water exposed correctly especially when
looking into the light. The cormorant's head is under exposed.
A better story might have been including the splash marks
behind the cormorant if the original included them.

Picking up or dropping off a pilot. Almost the antithesis of motion. Two
boats in synchronized motion briefly locked together for the transfer.
There is a story here. I like it.
