Sunshine Beach, blue, green, and white Dogwalking miscellany #photography #beach #surf #AlphabetChallenge #WeekKForKinetic #Kinetic #EastCoastKin #PhotographersUnited

Low view of lines of small waves breaking and coming in to shore.  The image is predominantly the bright white of sea-foam from the waves, which are running almost to the camera, with glimpses of clear green water beneath and within the swell. The sky is a clear, dull blue.

Little corella about to alight (Cacatua sanguinea, Fogg Dam) #photography #birds #BIF #AlphabetChallenge #WeekKForKinetic #Kinetic #EastCoastKin #PhotographersUnited

A little corella about to alight on the topmost branches of a dead tree, seen from below against a blue sky. The corella's wings are swept wide and slightly forward with the sun shining through them. Its claws are down, ready to grasp the branch.

Earth, wind & fire Wind painting 33 You have to click in... No ICM—still background—but sunlight on wet gum leaves tossed & fluttering in the wind leave hundreds of glittering sinusoidal fire trails ❤️ Double #Kinetic #scape #photography #Treescape #AlphabetChallenge #WeekKForKinetic #EastCoastKin

Long exposure of a wet gum tree violently tossed by the wind. The various degrees of freedom of different branches can be seen by the blurred strokes of the foliage, and looking more closely you can see myriad shining trails where the sun is glinting off wet leaves, tracing out both their sinusoidal twisting as well as their longer tossed journey.
In the background are successive treed ridges down in the valley, relatively calm and stationary.

Rainbow bee-eater, about to take a bath (Merops ornatus, Ngurrungurrudjba, Kakadu) #photography #birds #BIF #bathing #diving #BeeEater #AlphabetChallenge #WeekKForKinetic #Kinetic #EastCoastKin #PhotographersUnited

A rainbow bee-eater in a vertical dive, wings outstretched, a few centimetres from the rippled surface of a billabong. The bird's reflection can be seen, distorted, in the water.

Chaotic yet beautiful, #kinetic white sculptures gone in an instant The random, dancing white shapes of froth and foam, frozen in time as the wave boils and tumbles in to shore #photography #surf #patterns #ClassicMono #AlphabetChallenge #WeekKForKinetic #EastCoastKin #PhotographersUnited

The random, dancing white shapes of froth and foam, frozen for an instant as a wave spends the last of its energy boiling and tumbling in to shore

Red-tailed black cockatoo alighting (Calyptorhynchus banksii, Litchfield NP) #photography #birds #cockatoo #BIF #AlphabetChallenge #WeekKForKinetic #Kinetic #EastCoastKin #PhotographersUnited

Red-tailed black cockatoo alighting on a bare branch that still holds some seeds. Its tail is fanned, and its wings are curved forward in a powerful downbeat, while its claws are poised to grasp the branch its gaze is focused on.

Wind painting 25 I love the way you can see things you can't see - negative spaces, the invisible traced out. This is from a series of "painting with the wind". #photography #AlphabetChallenge #WeekKForKinetic #Kinetic #wind #art #DigitalManipulation #GIMP #GMIC #EastCoastKin #PhotographersUnited

The blurred top branches of a eucalypt tossed in a strong wind. The branches are long and very thin, so the mop-like foliage is making large excursions back and forth in addition to the leaves tossing about. The picture was taken deliberately with a long exposure, and then further manipulated in GIMP/GMIC to emphasise the movement and colour.

Wheeeee! Tandem #paragliding, Queenstown Frame grab from a low-res video, so posted purely for the #Kinetic quality. We went into multiple 360 horizontal spins after this, no horizon for reference 🤩 #photography #AlphabetChallenge #WeekKForKinetic #flying #EastCoastKin #PhotographersUnited

Pilot and passenger in a tandem paraglider, shot from a selfie-stick. The pilot's hand is raised on one of the controls, initiating a spin, and the horizon and ground below are already tilted at more than 45 degrees. (One of the few images of me you'll ever be subjected to)

Here are the moments before the attack. The Currawong was extremely territorial, and the bat never saw it coming until too late (it survived). #photography #AlphabetChallenge #WeekKForKinetic #EastCoastKin #birds #bat

Attacking Currawong swooping up behind a low- and slow-flying bat heading off to work in the evening.The Currawong has seized the bat's trailing foot in its beak and with a claw, and is braking in mid-air to turn the bat upside down.

Currawong vs. Bat Posted before, but it's absolutely #Kinetic. The quality is abysmal, but you try shooting black subject against light background action after dusk (1/125 f/4.8 ISO 12800, panned). Lead-up in comments/ #photography #AlphabetChallenge #WeekKForKinetic #EastCoastKin #birds #bat

Rather blurred shot at dusk of a pied currawong attacking a bat in mid-air. The bird has seized one of the bat's feet in its own and has yanked the bat upside down in mid flight. The bat's mouth is open in protest.

Ghost in the machine Child playing in the multimedia fountain, Warsaw #photography #urban #fountain #AlphabetChallenge #WeekKForKinetic #Kinetic #EastCoastKin #PhotographersUnited

A young boy is barely visible playing inside a square grid of fountain jets, each lit from below and spouting higher than the child. Dimly visible in the background are passers-by in the dusk.
