Bow Wave

Today's Sunday Challenge is: MOTION, practising shutter speeds. With slower shutter speeds, movement is captured as a blur - SS of 1/60 or lower. With a fast shutter speed the movement is sharp, as shown by these two late ducklings making waves on the canal.This was taken using a shutter speed of 1/250.

The mother duck had 5 ducklings altogether. They must have been a second batch as this is very late for them. A passing canoeist stopped paddling to let the family go past in peace.

The PiP was the main photo for the challenge. The slow shutter speed, of 1/15, shows blurring of moving objects, in this case a white lorry.
