Weekly challenge #484--Frozen Movement
Posted By: charliezap, 01-20-2020, 08:14 AM

I got an email from Ken saying that I won last weeks challenge #483 Movement (using time exposure).I'm going to segue that theme to my theme "Frozen Movement".I'm looking for stop action shots(flash can be used) that are unique with their subject matter. Think outside the box and "WOW" me with your selection. Here are some examples to get your creative juices going.--charliezap

The challenge will end on Jan 27 my time at midnight.

The fine print:
Every week, a new theme is picked and judged by the winner of the previous week.

Rules
1. Post ONE photo (max 1024x1024).
2. The photo must portray an interpretation of the theme.
3. Post your single picture in this thread and explain what motivated you to take the picture and/or how you feel it represents the weekly theme (especially if it's not obvious).
4. The challenge is interactive. Any response is welcome.
5. The judge will pick the WINNERS and choose one of them to be the judge for the next week.
6. This challenge runs for 7 days plus an additional day for the judge to choose the winners.
7. Any Pentax/Ricoh (DSLR) camera can be used.
8. Pictures can be from any time frame, not just within the week of the current theme.
9. In case the winner of a challenge is unable to become the judge for the next challenge, they will PM the #2 winner for that person to be the judge

With your examples, Charlie, I don't see how I can compete with those but I'll give it a try anyway.

Great subject.

For mine I select this one. A pure fluke on my part in the hustle and bustle of Australian Rules Football. The strange lighting is I think due a mix of flood lighting and early evening.

So far, I haven't entered the same photo in more than one challenge, but this is really the best fit I have for frozen movement (it's the dead of winter here, so in a sense everything that moves is frozen but I don't think that is what @charliezap has in mind). Taken with ISO 6400, so I applied noise reduction in Topaz Denoise, which removes some of the EXIF information. Shutter speed is only 1/160 of a second, so a fast shutter speed isn't essential.

Jumping on the edge of Preikestolen, if you look closely you can see the remote in my hand. Also, I was slightly worried.
