When I read this week’s photo challenge theme, movement, I thought, “I have nothing that works for this.”
Wrong. I have about a million photos of moving water – lakes, seashores, rivers, ponds, waterfalls, raindrops, etc. I have photos of the bat colony emerging from beneath the Congress Bridge in Austin, TX; I have photos of fish zooming about in aquariums; I have photos of luau fire dancers; and I have photos of kids playing that I’d never post here. All clear examples of movement.
Mr. Chickadee tends the campfire in front of an Adirondack lean-to.
What I wanted, however, was a shot that had both stillness and movement; movement is hard to appreciate without stillness, particularly in photos. And even with the obvious fire-poking movement going on in the photo, there’s no stillness like twilight on an Adirondack lake.

Nice contrast.

I love the still of the water against the motion in the fire!

I love what you do with these photo challenges, Dee Dee. You have such an expressive, creative, original component to you–and it comes out so clearly in your pictures.
Thanks, Candida! I won’t deny being one of those fairly creative bipolar types – always have been.
