Today for Skywatch Friday I'm sharing some experiments with camera movement while taking sunset pictures.First, the sunset while standing still:
Next, jumping up and down while viewing the sunset through the tree,
boundaries start to blur.
boundaries start to blur.
Zoomed in, it's not obvious where one thing begins and another ends.
Then, moving the camera on purpose while shooting a saguaro cactus:
Here, the colors of sunset wrap around to embrace the cactus.
Cactus and sky appear to have merged.
A final shot holding steady behind a hedge
for a tranquil sunset impression:
You are funny!! I am starting to imagine how you look while taking the pictures.
ReplyDeleteJump up and down, jump......
I was laughing when I read the part that you're jumping up and down to take the picture. However, they turned out very unique, and the beautiful sky pictures are fantastic, Diane..
ReplyDeletethat's what makes photography fun! it makes us look like crazy sometimes. lol!
ReplyDeletebeautiful sunset impressions! happy weekend, Diane! :)
Interesting experiments! I love the 2 squiggley ones near the bottom.
ReplyDeleteO you sizzling sun.
ReplyDeletewhen day is finally done,
color washes me.
You had a lot of fun with this week's post. I love the colors in the first and last one. Would have love to have seen the "performance."
ReplyDeleteinteresting idea to jump up and down for an effect rather than a fast horizontal pan! I'm going to have to try that. I also like your saguaro picture with the blurred light streaks.
ReplyDeleteJust be careful jumping off the planet next to a saguaro, least the earth's rotation swings it into you... *smile*
I love the original shot of cactus!
ReplyDeleteTake a look at the sky over in South Korea
I never thought og jumping up and down while taking a photos. I guess it gives a whole different perspective to a picture.
ReplyDeleteLoved the jumping up and down bit, great photos.
ReplyDeleteI like the idea of creative experimentation with photography. The second photo looks like an abstract art. The fourth photo looks like falling fireballs.The fifth photo looks like fireworks. The last photo looks beautiful.
ReplyDeletethis is a great series of photos. I like your comments. Have a great day. thanks for sharing.
ReplyDeleteI guess exercising while doing other things Is a good thing. You accomplished much!
ReplyDeleteI love it! Think you may start a new trend in photo jumping. I especially love the 3rd, 5th & 6th images. What fun. And a beautiful sunset also. Hope you didn't over do it with all that exercise. ;-)
ReplyDeleteI'm with Gaelyn on the 3rd, 5th and 6th.
ReplyDeleteOh these are excellent! I need to start jumping up and down!
ReplyDeleteYou are having too much fun
ReplyDeleteout there in the sun!
Very well done!
I had to giggle at the jumping up and down too. At first I thought you were cold. The last photo is just awesome. Cool photos and Happy Skywatch.
ReplyDeleteWhat a wonderful series of sky photos! You're very creative!
ReplyDeleteAmazing photos - talk about abstract art. Must try this. Thanks for your visit.
ReplyDeleteGreat impressions here Diane, like how it makes abstract.
ReplyDeleteInteresting photos, they turned out great. I am just imagining watching you jump up and down, it must have been quite the show.
ReplyDeleteHave a great day,
