Syncopation

The virtue of the camera is not the power it has to transform the photographer into an artist, but the impulse it gives him to keep on looking. - Brook Atkinson- 1951

    This appears to be the perfect capture of the subject. Love the dominance of the blues with the complementary green and the choice of shutter speed to capture the blur of just the arm, bucket, and water.

    I love both of the Fish! Looks like a really great day shooting. Where was it?
    The goal of my photography is is the effective, original communication of a feeling expressing truth, beauty, or love.

    Hi,

    Thanks for the comments.

    The photos were taken in Essaouira, south-west of Marrakesh in Morrocco. It was a fabulous place for shooting. Lots of action, colour and interest.

    The use of a camera is similar to that of a knife. You can use it to peel potatoes, or carve a flute. ~ E. Kahlmeyer
    ... I'm still peeling potatoes.

    Not sure I can enter the exercise twice. I've already posted an entry (post #7) ne_nau.gif

    Sure, go ahead and add it if you like. It's an exercise, not a contest. I'd rather we not see dozens of entries from anyone, but I don't think a couple does any harm. Both this shot and the one you have in there already are good examples of the theme. thumb.gif
