Light Graffiti Photos





Light graffiti technique is used to create different images of light shape on photographs and creating ''graffiti'' effect. In my class, we practised this technique, by working in groups of 3-4 people, by using DSLR camera.

The camera settings were ISO 100 and the camera focus was set on manual. The room we practised in had to be really dark as the camera is set up to be sensitive for light and by using different torches and flash lights we created different graffiti as on the images above. The camera had to be set up on tripod to catch the movement. The shutter button was set up to click up to 15 seconds or more, by catching the movement of the flash lights.

Shutter zoom pictures



For this set of pictures I used DSLR Cannon Camera. 
I set up the shutter speed for 1/25 seconds and manually moved out the zoom lens rapidly while taking the picture to produce the blurry effect. The ISO(image sensitivity) was set up to 100 which created sharp effect of the image and prevented it from being grainy and bad quality. Again, eye can't view this action same way as camera can, therefore this effect is really interesting. For next time I think I should improve more focus to the centre of the image so its more sharp and the background more blurred. 

Panning Technique pictures


For this set of pictures I used the panning technique, where by I focused on the moving object and slowly panned as the object moved. I used DSLR Cannon camera which was set set up with shutter priority mode with a shutter speed on 1/25 seconds and ISO(image sensitivity) on 100. 
What is interesting about theses images is that they capture something that the eye cannot normally see: as the background is blurry and the moving images are sharp. Although I could next time improve the sharpness of the images I think the outcome effect of this was very good. 

Slow Shutter Speed Pictures: Blurred Motion


For this set of images I set up the shutter speed to 1/25 and ISO(image sensitivity) was set up to 100 (so that the images didn't get over exposed with the long exposure). The  technique I used for this is called slow shutter speed and brings out the background to be sharp and the moving objects to be blurry. It is opposite technique to the panning. 

I used DSLR Cannon camera for this pictures and I had to place the camera on a steady place(tripod,fence) and when the moving object was coming forward I just placed the release button and captured the action which created this effect. What is special about these images is that eye cannot view this action the same as the camera can.
