Picture This #346 ~ Action Shots

Many thanks to Anders for hosting this week. A cool theme, I'm hoping to see some great action-captures. I had to search through my archive, as action-shots are not something I do a lot of, but managed to find some!!

Here are mine:

1) Leaping Dolphin, Seaworld, Florida.
Leaping Dolphins 2

2) Riders on the Montu rollercoaster, Busch Gardens, Florida, go through a barrel-roll.
Montu Twist

3) I took this shot of a British Airways 747 at Windsor Castle, which happens to be under one of the outbound flight-paths from Heathrow Airport.
Low Flying

4) This shot might look blurry, but it contains quite a lot of action. I was driving through a rainstorm, you can see the rain on the windshield, along with the windscreen wiper in motion.

  3. Good catch of the springing dolphin and of the roller coaster. I think I would only take a photo, and definitely not partake. Nice photo of the plane, although I have never flown over Windsor. My path was always South towards the channel. Very good atmosphere on the shot from the road.

  4. Hi, Mitch, wow, I am so envious of the jumping dolphin. We need to train ours to do that. It's a great shot. Love the angle of the rollercoaster and the jet. That last shot of yours is fascinating. As you said, it has a variety of action in it, as well as color and texture. Intriguing.

  5. Hi Mitch! Very active actions - intentionally I used a pleonasm -, as I wanted to emphasise how the shots are a mixture of motion and emotion... Love them all...
