long exposure photography

These photos used a similar method to the light painting, using a long exposure, but instead of torches, we used a series of flashes to capture the pictures. To get the movement, we all swapped places and moved around, so each time the flash went off, The camera captured everybody in a different position.

 In these two (above), we used both flashes and torches, so both the torch light and all the people would come out in the photograph. The top one of my favourites, because Paige stayed still for more than one flash, so is fairly solid, which contrasts to the busy background, where everything is difficult to make out. We then worked in pairs, to experiment with different ways of creating interesting long exposure photographs.
