MOVEMENT - Tip


Movement [moov-muhnt]

1. the act of, process, or result of moving
2. a particular manner or style of moving

Well, I might add that the dictionary was a great source of defining movement!  What causes movement? Where does movement begin?  Without stating the obvious - gravity, what is movement? I know its inertia or motion but lets have fun with this.

Does movement exist without gravity?  What forces of nature create or cause movement - less the human factor? Then movement may not exist.

I don't know exactly what it is, but its cool.  Without movement things would be quite boring.  There would be no wind blowing through the trees, waterfalls flowing, and birds soaring through the air.

I recently visited Salt Lake City and captured this image of movement.  With the affect of timed exposure its pretty cool, otherwise, just plan ole' movement.

Water is a continuous source of movement in certain cases water will never stop.  It may shift and it may change but will never cease to move.  The biggest question when photographing water is what impression it should leave.   

When using a fast shutter speed it freezes the water and will make it look dangerous and rigid.  However, on the flip side, using a slow shutter you are able to sculpt the path the water takes and show its softer side.  It will look pleasing, soft, and some what inviting.  So, the choice is yours, how will you photograph the beautiful never endless movement of water?  © Brandon Chapin Photography

What better to bring happiness to everyone then a carnival!  The sounds, smells, and colorful lights evoke some sort of childish reactions that, no matter your age will have you excited and ready to play the games and ride the rides.  When I go to a carnival, though, I always just wander around looking at the beautiful lights that have a color range bigger than my childhood box of crayons.  It is always fun to just watch the Ferris Wheel go 'round and 'round creating colorful light streak circles in the sky.
