I want to do something like this for my project.

An artist with an interesting take on movement is David Hockney. Through the 70’s and 80’s Hockney produced a series of works that he called ‘joiners’. These were multiple photographs, often Polaroid’s, arranged in a collage. The earliest pieces in this series of works were often portraits but as the subjects moved, as would the framing of the photograph. This produced a short story of the way that the photographer perceived the subject over a period of time (all be it short) as appose to a single moment which is a restriction of a single photographic image.

The Art of Movement

It is often a photographer’s goal to portray, imply or represent something within a photograph that can be difficult to show in a still image. This is sometimes telling a story or capturing emotion or atmosphere. I am interested in the idea of capturing movement within a still image.

I have planned to take some photographs  in a busy public place and I decided visitto Kingston station. I wanted also to experiment with different lights, exposures and timing.

*I used long exposure/timings

* Use a small aperture, for example f22 

* Experiment with multiple separate exposures

* In some of the photos i change the ISO 

.*I used available lights instead of flashes

Light trail photography

A technique sometimes used for showing movement in photography is light trails. This is where the shutter is left open for a relatively long period of time and a light is moved around within the frame of the photograph. Where the light has been a trail is left, this is sometimes called light painting. It is a technique that I have used before and have utilised in other projects. It is this that have given me the interest to explore it further and combine it with this project for showing movement.

#PhotoShopp

Using Photoshop I have combined my photographs to make one single image that tells the story of what I saw as the rider rode past me. I found that I didn’t need all of the photographs that I had taken however. There were quite a few that over lapped which made the editing harder and the image look too busy. Being selective over the photos that I have used has ensured all the key moments are there and it is still easy to understand.

I used long exposure and available lights for this shoot and i wanted to capture lots of different movements as much as possible.
