Photography should be fun…at least most of the time. Several years ago Dewitt Jones told me about “Drive Bys”. This is done by holding your camera out the window of your car as you are driving by something. Dewitt and Jack Davis had been having lots of fun with this process. Basically, you are moving the camera with the shutter open for a short period of time. To do this, you set your aperture to the lowest number like ISO 100. Then you shut down your f-stop to the biggest number, around f-22. Then put your camera on aperture priority, and click the shutter while moving the camera. (Your actual exposure will probably be a little different depending on what you are shooting.) You get a lot of not-so-good stuff, but every now and then you get something that makes you want to jump up and do the happy dance with a big grin on your face. Here are a couple of examples of camera movement during exposure. One was taken in the fall, and one was taken in the winter. Try it with beautiful flowers or maybe even tall palm trees. It’s actually loads of fun, especially in the post processing after you get some images that have some potential. Go out and try out some “Drive Bys”. Drag your shutter, and move your camera a little. It will bring a smile to your face. Thank you, Dewitt, for introducing me to this fun form of Digital Expressions.
