Thanks for the tip - glad you liked the dustAnother good B&W shot kicking off for the tool theme, great that you managed to get the saw blur movement too and like the bit of wood dust falling off.
The trick some do here to see if a shot is level is, slowly scroll up or down till the horizon is bang on line with the top of the page.
Quick off the mark this week, Phil. You have captured a really nice black & white image. Exposure time is good - long enough to blur the teeth whilst still retaining enough motion and texture.
What they said - lovely shot of a tool in use. The end of the off cut looks a little close to burnt out, but only looking on a tablet so probably my screen.
Edited in to English... Sorry for commenting when I was clearly to tired to see straight.
Hi Phil nice shot, good in b&w, I like the bit of movement in the saw too.
Only thing I would add to the comments above is that the tight crop works really well for this shot
You've captured just enough motion blurr to show its moving with out loosing all the detail, the B/W suits it.
Hi Phil,
I do like a black and white photo, and I think it works really well in this shot. I love the way you have captured the motion in the saw and maintained the sharpness in the end of the fence post. I like the way you have caught the sawdust falling to the floor too.
That's a clever shot Phil, very good work!
As others have said, the way you have captured some motion blur in the blade, and maintained those 'striations' on the blade sharp...excellent!
Works very well as b&w too.
Nice work!
Nice shot for tool Phil, I like how the slower shutter speed had blurred the saw blade so it looks like the grain of wood. I don't know if this was what you were going for but it's what stands out to me. Nice work
Nice shot there, personally I think a slightly wider crop may work better, but great nonetheless
Nice mono and good movement
Hi Phil
Love the Image, so much detail and the movement is just right. The angle of the saw is just right and that's the most important part of the image.

Like it Phil, great movement on the saw and the light works well, looks good in mono too.
It works well
Nice work - really like the bit of movement you can see in the saw.
Like how you got the movement in the shot to give it the action, well captured.
Can only echo others' comments. Great work.
Hi Phil nice action shot great B&W conversion the end of the timber is a little burnt out but not too much
pleasure - nice reflections, very sharp
tool - I love that photo, great tool-in-action shot, B&W conversion works very well
Nice one. Good texture on the saw blade.
Nice and tight composition and lovely motion blur. Looks good in B/W.
It's all been said already, Phil! It's spot on for the theme with just the right amount of motion, and monochrome was the perfect choice for this one.
Thanks. I did try some shots with motion blur but didn't get the action and timing right - perhaps I should have persevered.Nice... I had considered a shot, was.thibking an action shot of the discarded card being thrown down
Tink something that works as a team. Assume the hand is yours?Thanks. I did try some shots with motion blur but didn't get the action and timing right - perhaps I should have persevered.
