*** RESULTS Mini Challenge #717 - Movement ***

Thanks to all that entered the challenge, some wonderful and imaginative photos.

Honorable mentions:

Dunlin's "accidental" long exposer of some car lights, you have to know what you're looking for in this one.

Guiunness and his Koi. Having done this at some fish farms with baby trout, I can just feel the tickling sensation that one gets from this photo.

3rd Place goes to Guinness and long exposure with the car speeding by. What I like about this photo is the car is the only object in motion. Well done.

2nd Place goes to Steve and his motionless looking clock on the wall. It's like paint and concrete, if you watch it long enough, it will dry, or in this case, the hands will move. You just have to be patient. My wife has about 40 clocks in our house, so this photo has a special place in my heart.

1st Place goes to Irv and his beautiful Hummer. We have several feeders around the house, and these delicate beauties continue amaze me. This photo captures one about as close to motionless as one can get, yet you know their wings are going a mile a minute. This photo being my and a challenge favorite, Irv, the next challenge is yours.

Thanks for the HM Richard, I did mean to enter a proper shot but as usual it slipped my mind.

Congrats Irv - I must admit your photo was my favourite too.

Thanks for the mentions and congrats to Irv. Pity, that hummingbirds don’t live here.

Congrats to steve1, too, your clock pic definitely works for me, still watching when they  move.

Finally an interesting and populated challenge. Thanks rjgr.

Congrats to Irv.

I keep waiting for that little tiny drop of sap hanging off the hummingbird's beak to drop off.
