Day Six: Keeping Things Moving

Day six of our class saw the objective shift to showing motion in our photos. In class, we discussed the two most obvious ways. First, keeping the camera still and letting things in the frame move. Second, we talked briefly about something considerably more difficult, panning. While we found ourselves more limited in time than we had planned, we did manage to get into the Taipei MRT system and have some fun. We also drew some strange looks, but most importantly the kids also took some terrific photos.
Lauren did a great job of showing people waiting and the MRT train pulls into the station.

Kerrianne shows the escalator too, but she goes with quite a different, yet equally effective, composition.
Annie made ghostly work of the people going up the escalators.

Panning is really tough, even more so on slower moving targets. Benjamin did a great job as Jim came down the escalators.

Jim returns the favor to Benjamin as the train zooms past.

Kailynne also does a great job of long exposure with people on their ways up the escalators.

Tomorrow is food photography. That promises to be a lot of fun, so make sure to check back in.
