Oh, it's poetic as HELL, but is it "movement", poetic or otherwise? These voters ain't too subtle, if you cath my drift?

My guess from it's wings and feet is that it has either just landed or just about to take off - but movement ? I think you would be pushing it.

Heck an animal breathing creates movement, but this challenge is about 'getting away from furry (or feathery) statues' and showing birds flying, horses running, jumping, bucking or whatever - not a picture of a horse standing still and saying 'but hey it was both breathing and one of it's ears just twitched - what's wrong with those pesky voters . . '

LOL at Bear!

I have a tenative shot but I wouldn't call it full poetic motion, more like an anxious scuttle :-)

Is there a difference between full poetic motion and fully poetic motion? Not really a quibble, but I'll guess the intent of the challenge, so far as a challenge has intent, is to provide pictures that make us say, Ah, poetry in motion.

No, the intent of the challenge is to photograph animals in motion, per the title. All that lovely verbiage in the challenge description is just to motivate us. It sounds good, I grant ya, but I guarantee ya the voters, as a group, won't be marking up/down based on presence/absence of iambic pentameter or trochaic hexameter in the entries :-)

Bear (or should I now address you as LOL?) I am happy with iambic pentameter, but need a refresh on trochaic hexameter...

I was going to do a self-portrait for the "Nightmare" challenge, and now regret not doing so given my current entry's score.

Of course, your entry for the Animals in Motion will be pure Shakespeare no doubt!

Personally, I'm planning my own entry as a...LIMERICK for The Brown! ;-)
