First off, many apologies for missing the MBPOTW posts for the last few weeks. Sometimes a person just needs some downtime, but I should have left a note or something to give you guys a heads up. I did not, and that is just not cool.

We have a fantastic mix of still and action shots this week. Stills and action shots each require different skill set but are no less difficult to execute. Even if you has a fantastic DSLR or a simpler camera phone, one needs to know how to use the functions provided by the DSLR or to work within the limitations of a simpler camera to one’s advantage to produce a memory that is stunning. But even if it is not the best technically, sometimes, the significance behind it counts for much more to the individual. Thank you for sharing, and please do visit the photographers listed and linked. :)

Portraits and landscapes are the order of the day for week 12 participants.
Nothing says health and vitality better than the portraits this week (pointedly ignores the portrait of the cat that says laziness more than health and vitality :P).
We have two very different photos of two ladies and two dogs.
Completely Disappear and 1stworlddog went for wider shots that show both human and dog’s carefree interaction with nature and the environment. Dawn (Lingervisions) and weliveinaflat were more intimate with a closer shot of her beautiful niece, Tiffany and Donna respectively. In both, the choice of colours tend toward a warm glow that is kind to the subject.
2catsandacattledog and Barbara (Looneyatoms) experimented with photos of great stillness. One with the portrait of a cat in repose, the other with an early morning landscape. Each tranquil in its own way.
