The Crazy 9
I love the motion in these pictures!! Was it just the shutter speed that you changed?
ReplyDeleteThose are so fun. The downfall of low angles...seeing the dirt on my floors too!
ReplyDeleteAmy-Yes, slow shutter speed. And set camera on the floor rather than a tripod.
ReplyDeleteeasy peasy!
AHAHAHAH DO NOT be embarassed by those floors, dear. It is totally understandable. My floors are like that too but I prefer spending the day outside with my kids, eating sour cherries. HUGS!! ^.^
ReplyDeleteThese are so fun! I'll have to try that! But I'm not going to worry about my floors, and you shouldn't either! That hardwood is amazing!! We LIVE in our house, so I could sweep and mop now. Then 10 minutes later, you wouldn't even be able to tell! Happy weekend!
ReplyDeleteLoooooove it!!!
ReplyDeleteThese are such great shots! I have no idea how you did them, but they are awesome!
ReplyDeleteThese are so great!
ReplyDeleteI've been racking my brain trying to think of a fun way to capture movement. I have finally thought of a few; now I just have to find the time to shoot. I'm actually going to start a list that I can work off of, as this is something I don't ordinarily do. And if I'm going to be intentional about pushing myself, a list will serve that purpose.
LOVE LOVE LOVE it.
