Static & Kinetic [Contest Finalists April 2010]
Uploaded: April 13, 2010 07:15:18
The static state of the bolt is dynamically opposed by the kinetic state of the gears.
This mechanical B&W photograph was shot at the huge steam powered sawmill at the Timbertown Heritage Theme Park, Wauchope, NSW, Australia on a slightly grey and balmy autumn day.
Canon EOS D60 & Canon 28-135 USM IS Lens: RAW, Manual settings of f/11 @ 1/6sec, 100mm, ISO 100, Hand held but resting on a railing.
Lightroom 2.2 & Photoshop CS3.
Enjoy!
Exif: F Number: 11, Exposure Bias Value: 0.00, ExposureTime: 1/6 seconds, Flash: did not fire., ISO: 100, FocalLength: 100.00 mm, Model: Canon EOS D60
