Aviation Museum

I had a chance to take some of my Photo 2 students to the Aviation Museum in town the other day and we had a great time photographing the old planes in the hanger.  Towards the end I had a chance to pull out my own camera to see what I could come up with.  I took inspiration from the assignment that I had given the students, as well as from a good friend and great photographer, Jonah O'Neil.  For the most part I shoot with a pretty wide angle lens when I come here, so I was excited to try something new.  My goal was to centre around selective focus, some punchy colour and a little more of an abstract look.  So, I donned my 100mm macro lens, and this is what I came up with.  Let me know what you think.

Abstract in Motion

I've been looking for different ways to spice up my nature photography, and one way to do so is to look at things a little more abstractly.  I follow a few photographers who use purposeful motion in their images, so I decided to give it a try for myself.  After about seven hundred images, and lots of trial and error, I think I've figured out the "equation" to give some fabulous results.  Below are some of my favourites from over the past year - I hope you enjoy!
