MSA O/N June 2025 - "Movement"

[Ivo Stunga]

Theme for June 2025 is Movement.
Be it long exposure with blurred subjects, running people with blurred extremities or a race car photographed in a panning shot, resulting in a blurred background... The idea for this month is simple: to express movement


Guidelines are here:

Monthly Shooting Assignment ("MSA") Guidelines - Revised 2024/07, 2021/12, 2019/07 and 2015/07

Happy shooting!

Thanks - I look forward to what we will see as a result of this interesting theme.
I'll do my mini-moderator stuff with the Sticky thread designations and updating the list of themes to date.

 

[Ivo Stunga]

This will probably benefit from some examples, so:


Reversed Adox CHS 100 II


Double-X straight into sunlight


URBEX LV


URBEX LV - Spilves lidosta, 2010

New or old guidelines?

I meant new photos only?

I meant new photos only?

No. You can post any photo you have taken on film (negative scan, print scan, transparency scan). You should indicate when you took the photo. This is a very informal activity - we all just want to have fun and look at photos. So you can post photos as old or new as you wish.

There is a bit more of an inherent challenge to come up with something that you take and share during the month, so that why it is nice to be able to recognize the "New" submissions.
But it is optional, not required.
When the MSA was starting up, and for a considerable time thereafter, the rules only permitted "New" work, but that turned out to be more restrictive on participation then we wanted, so the rules were expanded.

Thanks!

@Ivo Stunga , a question for you:
Did you intend the requirements to mandate some blurring in the image, or is it enough that movement is implied or expected?
For example, would the following qualify: a photo of my wife and I after our last home move, looking exhausted and sitting surrounded by all our boxes that await unpacking?
I ask, because I really liked @Horatio 's now deleted photo of a youngster raking leaves - deleted because of a perception that it didn't satisfy the theme's requirements.

 

[Ivo Stunga]

I'd like it to be interpreted in many ways - just now I realize that I mentioned "blur" everywhere

So please - go ahead!

Awesome. Thanks Matt.

An old one.
It is subtle - can you see the movement?

Here is another experiment from my first attempts at IR photography. This one was metered at EI...

Old (late last year)

I'm not too sure if I have used this before.

Ramping.

Shen Hao HZX45-IIA
Fujinon SWD f/5.6 65mm
Centre Graduated Filter
Ilford FP4+
D76 1:1

This was something I had been trying to do for quite a while, I often cycle right past here, and had over a few years, noted where to stand, what season (sun angle) and the time of day where sunlight would be on the vertical concrete walls of the ramps. I also needed there to be a group of vehicles held up by the first vehicle as it waited for traffic to clear. This took some time, but I was rather lucky. This was the result.

I was also worried about the shopping centre security guards asking me to move on, as I was using a tripod. That didn't happen as my time at my chosen spot was not too long, well, not long for a view camera exposure.....

Reasonably Old. 1988

Katoomba Cascades.

Blue Mountains NSW
Taken after a huge rain storm which threatened to tear apart our camper

Nikon F3 HP
Sigma 18mm f/3.5
The lens was around 300mm from the large rock at the front right of the image
Exposure is forgotten, but probably around the 1/30 to 1/60 of a second mark.
Original exposure was on Kodak Ektar 25 Professional Film
C41 process

After processing the film and assessing the contact sheets, I decided to make a Color Print Film, ever so slightly cropped.

This was using Kodak 4x5" Color Print Film under the enlarger, then processed in C41 for a 4x5" colour corrected transparency.

Eventually I managed to get a scan of the transparency, which has since lain dormant on a remote to my computer, backup hard drive. I happened across this image about 30 minutes ago, so here it is.
