So, this is what happens when you take a picture of a (partially) moving object at lower shutter speeds (1/15 in this case):

Speed....

I was using this colorful French minimart as a background to practice catching speed/motion using a slow shutter speed to blur people passing by.

Not fireworks! But this is what happens when you deliberately move the camera during a long (1 sec) exposure: you can write with the light. In this case, both with the actual lights in the arcades as well as their reflections on the water. Note how the hotel's neon lights are still in focus and readable. Taken in Desenzano on the shores of the Garda Lake.

The Roosevelt hotel lobby in New York is picture-worthy. Taken hand-held and with low shutter speed (see the fuzzy person walking) on the old camera, I'm quite pleased how this turned out.

Lucky us we got to stay an extra night due to a misunderstanding between travel agent en airline, too :)

From a purely technical viewpoint, this is a horrible photo. But it amuses me to no end how, due to using flash and a 1 second exposure, I ended up with a laser-eyed alien cat that's ghosting through the room (notice how you can still see the flower pot through Sam's tail.

Because we are officially (in Dutch) the hottest place in Europe... With 28C on May 7th being a teensy bit over the top... A cool bath sounds like just the thing!


Exposure: 1/160 sec

And in case you're wondering: the bird moves its head too fast for the camera's shutter speed to capture it properly...

More experiments with shutter speed and moving objects, this was taken at a fair a few years ago. Judging by the blurry background, I must've been trying to pan and follow the moving car.


1/10 sec; F8.0
