Motion Blur Photography

Motion Blur photography is primarily about capturing a scene where a subject is still in motion while everything surrounding the subject is blurred. Using motion blur to produce beautiful pictures from weddings to sports pictures. The trick is understanding the difference between camera shake and motion blur. The former is a particular photographic technique, one that accentuates motion within an picture. Camera shake; however, this occurs when a photographer uses a shutter speed that is too low for the lens’ focal length. It can also happen if the camera is hit involuntarily, and then you end up with images that are less than optimal.

Panning: The concept behind panning is simple, and is taught by practise. You’ll need to familiarise yourself with this by following your camera focus, and then start to click as the shutter is released. This can make panning much simpler if you own a tripod with the right form of spinning handle. If not, holding the camera as steady as possible is crucial when you’re “panning” the subject.

Motion blur lets the shooter express the movement presence within their static pictures. It provides a different outcome than simply freezing a subject. It can convey a period of meaning in an picture, too. If used in a imaginative manner, as in the shots in this post, some incredible effects will result.
