It is time again to change the header. Mac, Tom, Darla and I have a little contest to show a new theme header each week. Go to the other sites to see their interpretation of Tom's suggestion of a "motion". We are keeping the competition small, limited to just to this group. Since I won last week the pressure was off and I'm just trying to keep the shield in Ohio.
I did have one problem. Every time I took a photo the motion stopped. What to do, what to do. I looked at a Swallow in the motion of flight this Summer trying to get to the nest. It was an interesting photo.
Then I thought of the Great Blue Heron at the rookery this Spring spreading it's large wings as it moved through the sky.
Then there was the one I chased along the edge of the lake with the moving water in the morning light. Watch out for that tree. Wait, that is a George of the Jungle problem.
Then there was this one in the pond from last week with him moving the water with his strong legs.
But I finally decided on a Seagull in flight, I hope you like it and see the power of motion of the wings in the air.




Good Grief! This is a beautiful header photo Tom..........

Flying high Tom, will be back to vote - when friends have gone.
ReplyDeleteI love your interpretation of movement. What a beautiful bird. Now I have to check another one.
ReplyDeleteExcellent... I was going to go with a bird in flight... but your shot as certainly out classed mine... again as an header it makes a great shot and sets your blog off well... Once again I do not think this is an easy pick... I'm sure others will agree that this little bit of fun we take part in each week is throwing up some great pictures.
ReplyDeleteI will be back later after I have had a good old think..
Tom
Wow what a header! I like all the shots-especially the one peeking from behind the tree-too cute.
ReplyDeleteI love the great blue in silhouette. Looks like he's having a heated conversation with a tree. Which I have done before, myself....
ReplyDeleteLike it? I love it!
