Bi-weekly Photo Comp Week #20 - split second

[Solo]

​

The rules are as follows:

• Entries will accepted until 11:59pm (GMT) Wednesday 28 March
• Each competition's voting will last for one week. The winner of that round will choose the next theme.
• All entries must have been taken within the last 6 months and preferably after the announcement of the theme.
• Entries must be posted as a thumbnail no larger than 700px on the longest edge. Full sized images may be as larger as you'd like.*
• You must submit only your own photographs, do not post anyone else's work.
• Only one photograph per person, marked with Final Entry. You can change your entry, but must remove your current entry first and clearly state that you have posted a new entry.
• You must not vote for your own photograph when the Poll is up. Only vote for a photograph taken by another entrant.
• The photograph must be submitted with the following information: Subject, Date and Camera used and, if you'd like, the major camera settings - shutter speed, ISO, etc.

*While full sized images may be as larger as you'd like, you should try to limit them to approximately 1200px to enable viewing the entire image without scrolling. It's much easier to see the full effect of the shot when you can view it all at once and not have to pan.

Current theme, chosen by Week #18 winner Rue

Split second. Capturing a fleeting moment in time at high speed.

Wow, great work. I'll see if I can get anything at the GP. 👍

Solo - Does 'split second' mean anything less than a second, or are we talking anything less than 1/30th?

 

[Solo]

I would suggest that it is anything less than one second.

Uh oh, totally spaced this was today, assuming it is Wednesday and not the 28th...

 

[Solo]

Oh yeah, for some reason there I've put the wrong date but if you think you can get a shot in soon I'll extend it a little? Let me know.
