B&W RESULT: #156 Black & White Challenge

After a long day shopping, here are my favourites.
As always, it's been a difficult task as there were so many great images this week.

The winner of this week challenge is Kevin Barrett with "Grocery Shopping". Just waowww!!! I love the contrast between details and blur, the movement and the composition. Love this one. Well done :)

Well done Sandra - great choices. :thumbs: Congratulations to Kevin Barrett Kevin - that’s a super image. I’d love to know how you achieved it; I aspire to something like this, but have no success. High fives to Kentaro Cian and terse Ted for second and third. Cian, I love that car park - I can’t believe it’s being pulled down.:( But at least it has been immortalised here. And, as Sandra says, that is a super close-up Ted. Hugs to the HMs, Nagaisgich Carmel and RoseCat Catherine. All in all, another great week of black and whites. Keep it up!! Okay, I’m going to get on Kevin’s shopping trolley and go wheeeeeeeeeee down the corridor to the Gallery. :lol: See it, and all of the other B&W Challenge winners, here: https://mobitog.com/media/albums/mobi-black-white-winners.822/

JillyG - I did this on a whim. I realized that I had the Spectre app on my phone and decided, "What if?" I did about a half-dozen takes. Determined the best aisle to go down, exposure level and camera angle. I had to brace the camera very firmly and though it looks like I was running down the aisle, it was truly at a snail's pace (ninja walking) over the 9 second exposure. Both hands were firmly pressing the phone against the shopping trolly ( we call it shopping cart here) handle as I knew I had to keep the cart crisp in the image. It was fun! The people watching, thought I was nuts. What's new... LOL!

Aww, that’s so lovely of you to tell us your technique. I have Spectre. I’m going to try it next time I’m shopping. I fully expect to get the same reaction from the other shoppers. :lol:

Haha!! That’s a great visual. Well, I’d say it was all worth it because that image is so cool.
 
Kevin Barrett Kevin, sometimes one has to play around and test stuff, do stupid things or do it the way it's not supposed to be. This is creativity!
Thx for letting us know how you did it! :thumbs:
Your shot is fantastic! I never thought this would be possible with a phone.
