My get-pushed challenge this week was ICM (intentional camera movement). I am getting my second entry in under the wire. This one was done with a 24-85 zoom, zooming very very quickly. I had to set the ISO to very low, stop down the aperture as far as I could, and still couldn't leave the lens open for much.
This is Bonners Landing, looking north toward McCauley's Point.
And thank you all so much for your wonderful comments about Ready-Set-Go frog photo! It had a very short life on PP thanks to you! I've enjoyed your photos but because of having to process all the photos from the garden tour, I'm barely keeping up with comments, so won't be able to do individual thanks today.
@ness50 I hadn't heard that! I've had my camera about 4 years now and can see the sensors are quite dirty when I do any kind of landscape. I'll have to be careful with the new camera body I just bought!
Hi Taffy,
Thanks for my challenge, wonderful project you have going on here. I have had a look through to make sure that I haven't picked a challenge that someone else has. I would like you to capture an object, person or animal in mid air. Have fun, can't wait to see what you come up with
@wenbow What a great topic! I already have started working on it today with objects and animals (insects) as no human I'm in contact with would cooperate!
@danielwsc Thanks Daniel! So weird re the PP shot. If I keep shuffling it does eventually show up, and once it popped up large right away. But it's very inconsistent. Oh well...
@anazad511 Thanks Ana -- that's a lovely thing to say! And thank you for asking about Nutmeg. We lost her a few weeks ago ( http://365project.org/taffy/365/2013-06-22) while you were still traveling. It's been very strange without her as she was such an incredibly large part of our lives, especially this past 15 months. At the university, I'm in the College of Education, in literacy and school reform. interesting work but getting tougher these days to be in education.
@taffy Oh I'm sorry about Nutmeg, and I'm sure you miss miss her, but now she is resting of all the problems she had. I just read the beautiful tribute you wrote on June 22. Thanks for taking the time to write back.
@susale I like that thought -- almost like a vortex pulling us in. I'm going to think about this and try to do something to capture the idea of Beaver Island time that we talk about here. Time seems to stand still and then suddenly, it's gone. Hard to explain but ICM might do the trick!
Thank you all for your visit and comment on this one. I was so glad for the challenge as it got me looking at scenes in terms of the colors they would produce in a zoom.

Ready Set Go is still on the PP. I've noticed that it doesn't show you your own pictures sometimes.
