Motion Blur! :)

My blur project turned out surprisingly well for how difficult it sounded!  I did two types of blur, Panning, where you follow the person and take a picture while the camera and the subject are in motion.  The other type of motion shot was still, when I took they picture holding the camera still and the subject moving.  One of my favorites is the one of my brother running because his legs an the background are blurred while his body is clear, making him look like he is running really fast.





These are two of my test strips.  For the contact sheet test strip, I did the full 30 seconds, and for the running one, I did 21 seconds.

Multiple Exposure



The contact sheet for the multiple exposure turned out well because all of the pictures developed. They were taken outside during the pouring rain, but there was plenty of light.

This picture of my brother was taken over a picture of a fence.  I thought that the texture of the fence would look nice against the background.  It is kind of an eerie photo because his hood is up, but I like it!

This was made by sandwiching negatives together, and it has a very depressing look.  I didn't mean to make it this way, but I thought the two pictures would go well together.


As it was pouring rain, like Oregon normally does,  I got a picture of me standing out in the rain and a stop sign.  I thought it would be like sending the weather a message to stop the rain!



I like this picture becasue it looks like my rother is coming out from the bushes because his face has the texture of the tree now.  I like how the texture has made the picture more interesting.
