I like the zoom effect. I do a lot of rotating shots instead or in addition where you hold the picture steady a bit for a moment before and/or after rotating or zooming in and/or out from where you were. You have to like things to be a bit more abstract. But that’s me. I prefer to often struggle or find it impossible for one to decipher what the original subject was. I care more about the visual aesthetics.
This is so wonderful. Thank you for this tutorial. I’m getting so frustrated with slower shutter speeds but i wrote everything he down and I’m off to try ❤
Hey TK, great tips. Question about settings for 5:45, it's a long exposure but what f stop are you using? The street light isn't the typical sharp starburst usually produced at f22. Are you using a filter and or shooting wide open?
Thanks so much! Actually looks like I left the black mist filter on. I was using it for some different shots before this one. This causing the halation’s around the street lights. So not totally deliberate there! I shot heaps of examples this night, so I was pretty tired by this point 😂 But if it’s dark enough I won’t always close off the aperture completely, depends on the shot I guess :)
