Wow,  that was a brilliant insight, love this capturing movement, i always been into it, think Im going to try this more heres a sequence I did of a waterfall, not brill,cant wait till I get my 7d next week hopefully

Sometimes I think my kit bags heavy lugging it about, he had to drag all his kit/darkroom in a barrow and a stagecoach, thought his photographs were amazing, the amount of work that went into each individual shot,  Clicky Linky to Iplayer if you missed well worth watching

Going to catch it on the I-player hopefully....Eadweard Muybridge is a Kingston on Thames boy (my hometown) and our local musuem has a permanent display of some of his work and equipment although he did so much of his work in the States, Kingston does claim his as one of their own....

I also will try and watch it on iplayer

Just watched it. I was much more impressed by his earlier landscape and cityscape work than that later stuff (of which I was previously aware). He seemed to turn into a 'fiddler' towards the end, and I tend more towards Miller's point of view than the one Yentob was presenting.
