This looks like a fairly benign scene, but yesterday, one of these horses spooked. He went up on hind legs, fell over and crushed one on the handlers to death. You must be ready to take ACTION every step of the way.
A (wo)man should hear a little music, read a little poetry, and see a fine picture every day of his/her life, in order that worldly cares may not obliterate the sense of the beautiful. (free to J.W. von Goethe)
Simon loves to beg at the table. I gave him a little piece of my porkchop and here is what happened. I wasn't anticipating doing a shoot, but I happened to have my little camera nearby. Not the best quality, but action nonetheless. http://www.pbase.com/lynnh/image/121634470

I can tell this is going to be a challenging month. Not just technically, but also finding the time to get out with the camera. Guess that's what it's all about eh? Have a great day tomorrow.
Sorry, hadn't realised there were two threads this month. Here is my action shot Just to show that action doesn't need movement, I spotted this lovely sculpture in Blackburn town centre on Monday and then applied a fancy action to the image. For the 3rd: http://www.pbase.com/beady/image/121616545
