016/365 - Jim - Splash

( f/8 170mm 1/320 sec ISO 200 Nikon D300 )

Theme is motion. I originally wanted to take a long exposure shot of the sky to see star trails, but it was too cloudy tonight. So I decided to show motion in the form of a splash. I dropped a grape into the glass and tried my best to pull the trigger on the remote at the exact moment it hit the water. Then I rotated the picture a little bit to make it look better.

That picture is really cool and it looks refreshing,
It looks like a cyclone in the glass. You could have taken 2 pop 2 lt. bottles and made a cyclone with it as motion or just take a picture of your son :)

Cool. That would have looked neat with champagne too.

It turned out nice. He did try to take some motion pictures of Jameson earlier in the evening in case the stars thing didn't work out, but apparently those didn't work out either.
