ENTRIES thread weekly competition 1st-9th August Subject: Intentional Camera Movement
Intentional Camera Movement, is yet another creative way to use your camera: shooting at low shutter speeds, while moving the camera, to create an abstract image through motion blur. The results can be surprisingly beautiful, like impressionist paintings.
How you move the camera is entirely up to you, horizontal, vertical, diagonal, in circles, or zooming in and out, all create the effect I'm after. It's easy to do, but I have tried it in the past, and I do not find it easy to get a beautiful result! It's often a question of many shots, in the hope one will stand out.
There is plenty to find on the Internet, if you want to know more about this technique.
No restrictions on PP, but it should not need much.
