Nice..how did you do that?
Same question as K… how did you?
Thanks and basically this was a ‘proof of concept’ photograph
DSLR (tripod) on manual settings – 30s shutter speed – large aperture – and me walking backward away from the camera swinging a LED torch in my hand.
I understood the theory and gave it a try. Didn’t work as well as I hoped but I know what went wrong and can’t wait to try it again!
Nice idea! Think it has come up quite well..
May be you have to go a bit slowly..
Yeah… slower would be better
and a brighter torch might help too!
