Last Wednesday we had a night excursion with my short course. We went into Circular Quay, because it's one of the few places that a bunch of photographers with tripods don't look out of place. Unfortunately, it rained, which made for some interesting shots but my shoes didn't dry for days.
Playing with sparklers
Panning was something I hadn't tried before. Put simply, it's a method of photography that gives the illusion that the background is moving, rather than the subject. All you need to do is take the shot on a reasonably slow shutter speed, while panning the camera along with the moving subject. If the camera moves at the same speed as the subject, the subject will appear still, but the background will blur. The shots below are all examples of panning and I'm really happy with how they worked.
Lots of shots coming up soon. Gigs,gigs and more gigs. So stay tuned.
