Reality dream

in #photography6 years ago (edited)

Hello! This time I tried something different by introducing intentional camera movement. What better place to try it than in the forest with all the trees and leading lines. It gives it the look of impressionistic paintings like the ones of Claude Monet where the small brush strokes are clearly visible and the artwork has a sense of mystery.

How clear or focused the subject is up to you and how long of an exposure you choose. 1-1.5s worked best for me. Slow movement also helps the photo stay more clean and intentional. I was shooting these at and after sunset so the color palette is limited and the atmosphere more moody which I always prefer. :)


The second part of the post is me goofing around in Photoshop with one of the photos to see if I can come up with something interesting.
