4 annotated images of movement

The movement here is portrayed to be very fast as the lines are heavily blurred to the point where you can barely see the train because it is blurred so much. I think this image is quite boring, however I think the way that movement is portrayed was good.

The movement in this image looks swift as even though the birds wings are blurred indicating fast movement, the birds body is almost pictured perfectly, showing that the bird moves swiftly within the air. I like this picture because the bird looks very natural. 

This images movement looks gradual as you can see that the movement isn't quick because their is no blir or indication it is at fast pace, however you know that it is quick because gravity drags water down. However this made to look gradual because you can see the build up around the water ring and see the drop of the water inside the ring. I like this photo because it is almost as if time has been slowed down for the picture. 

In this image movement is portrayed to be rapid as you can still see her body when the photo starts to blur, indicating that she is moving very fast. I like this photo because ballet is known to be graceful and it is slightly contradicted when the picture shows how quick the girl is going.
