Round Robin Challenge: In Motion

From For Ellipsis


"All motion is cyclic. It circulates to the limits of it's possibilities and then returns to it's starting point."

-Robert Collier

RRC: In Motion
Suggested by Vicki of the blog Maraca and by Terri of the blog, Ways I see The World.

This time around, it's all about motion! I have to admit, due to my computer woes, I had to dip into my archives in order to participate. It's been a heck of a year between breaking my digital camera getting broken on January 1st, and my computer's display driver going out last month, but I have to admit, I did enjoy looking back on some of my better motion shots from the last few years. Here, have a look...

A second look at Jellyfish from the Monterey Bay Aquarium...

A man surfing under the Golden Gate Bridge, near Fort Point, San Francisco. It was taken the weekend of the famous Maverick's Surfing contest, perhaps he was training for that!

There are so many Monarch butterflies in the Pacific Grove preserve that you can just aim your camera up to the sky and capture a multitude flying this way and that!

I just had to show one more jellyfish...

Oh bummer about computer woes. These photos are all great. I just saw the same type of jellyfish at the Vancouver Aquarium this week. They are so fascinating. Beautiful shots...

Hi Carly...Thank you for the kind welcome and it was my first post. I'm sorry, I don't usually post my name so I will remember for your meme. You have a wonderful selection of motion photos. I have always been fascinated by jelly fish... Michelle from Rambling Woods....

Some beautiful old photos, Carly! I'm not really seeing the motion in the photos, but I can definitely imagine it. I especially love the jellyfish.

Nancy said...

Your photos are simply magnificent. Those fishy ones should be sent to magazines or sold SOMEhow!
Gonna go check out the others...

xo,
Nance

Linda said...

Monica said...

I'm lovin the photographs of the jellyfish and the others. The jellyfish are my favorites and I agree with Nancy, those should be published. =)
