PhotoPie - Week 4

Last week's challenge churned out some truly beautiful landscape photos. Thank you to those who participated. I know I truly enjoy seeing where others have been ...

This week's challenge is going to be the LAST of going through the simple, auto functions on most cameras. So what does that mean? That means, that if you paid attention last week, you could have very easily figured out this week's challenge..... Action Shots.

Get out and find something/someone moving, and photograph it/them. People, pets, inanimate objects.... everything is fair game. Your picture just needs to depict movement.

Point and Shoot owners, you may want to switch your camera to the action/sports setting (with the little man running) and step outside where you have enough light.

And here is where I post an old shot of mine as an example.. This is from my series last week (not the best action shot from the bunch, but I already posted those and I tried to keep it somewhat fresh....):

If you don't know the PhotoPie Rules.... here they are:


  • The picture has to be a new one, posted to your site on or after today's date.

  • Make sure the picture is YOURS.

  • When you post your pictures, remember to link to this site. If you don't link me, I wont link you ;)

  • Leave a comment here, with a link to your post.

Enjoy!

I particpated last week, I just haven't actually posted them to the blog yet!

I also haven't been using the automatic functions on any of these (except the macro on the point and shoot) so far. Whoops!
