Expressing movement

AntonioCorreia · 18th of August 2008 (Mon)

Some photographers and myself we decided to shoot under a theme or subject for August.
It is not for competition but for leisure as we criticize each others wishing to make better photography.
This month the theme is movement.
My proposals go like this:
1. Pan shot. Done with the G9, using the built in flash. They were just passing and I decided to shoot.

2. Different approach: trees under the wind. Long exposure shot during day time. I had to "darken" the lens with a NDF and a CPF. Just a 10 seconds shot.

3. Pan again with the G9. I just followed the car and I like the trails.

4. On the way back from a small night shot I used the 5D for this one. It translates movement. Camera hand holded camera while driving.

I like #2 very much. Nice job.

#1 is just a little too blurry for what you were going for, I think.

#3 & #4 don't really do much for me at all, sorry. Too blurry.

Edit: I love your avatar

Thank you jsvphoto!

You are right about photo number 1. It is a little blurry and un-focused. I was using the Canon G9 and it has not AI-Servo...

I respect your opinion about the two last photos.

Thank you for commenting.
