Default Movement

Doing a photo 52 and this was my interpretation of movement. No suction mounts or rig set ups so not as sharp as they could be! Needed a longish exposure and hand held hanging out of the back window

I like those, I like those a lot!

Much better effort than some of the simulated shots in MGR brochures.

Well done

Mark

Yes Jeff, there in the 52 section. Really struggling with finding the time and keeping up with the topics

I like the approach, something I have yet to do. If I might add a couple of thoughts regarding 'technique' that I have read about.
1)Instead of hand held, use a bean bag as a steady and press the camera and bean bag hard against the car.
2)Rig shots are often done with the car being pushed very slowly, not under power, during the time exposure. This significantly reduces engine and road vibration during a time exposure, but still enables blur of everything around the car.
