The WordPress instructions for today’s prompt, Tempo, indicate that photographers could depict “motion” in a photograph (slow, medium or fast) to depict tempo. I’ll try. I’ve got several photos in mind, but the big problem will be locating them.

(Three days later…) Okay, I’ve spent hours and hours trying to find the photos I really wanted to use. However, I’m sequestered in Indiana and my PC is at home in Phoenix. All I’m able to search is the contents of my iPhone and iPad that I have with me. The photos I want (which show motion, but are not videos) were taken on a previous cell phone and have disappeared into the abyss of iCloud and Google related “out there somewhere” storage locations not easily accessed from this location.

Just to fill in the rest of this blog I’ve grabbed two photos which have moving water in them. The first was taken during a rain storm in Ajo, AZ during the first days of March. Water spilling from a rain pipe and splashing onto some cement blocks is frozen in mid-spill. That, if shown as a video, would depict a faster tempo. The second, taken on a cruise ship shows the ship’s wake to the aft with my shoes included. That probably would depict a slower tempo.

So, sorry for the poor blog quality – at least compared to what I had hoped to accomplish when I started several days ago. Maybe sometime in the future, after I’m home, I’ll find those other photos and update this post.
