I've been exploring motion in images for years, but let's be real: "motion" covers a lot of semantic ground. Camera gestures were my go-to at the beginning. We all remember that great purple cauliflower shot. Whole-body movement was a natural next step, twisting from the core instead of just my arm.
But there's a lot more to discover. Take these images, for example. Was the camera moving? No. Was I moving? No. But the plane taxi just seemed like a perfect opportunity to capture the lovely landing strip lights.
I love these lights.

I love the rainbow bokeh in these images, the unfocused points of light that make a twilight image feel festive and full of wonder. There are two extra special images I want to call out: The first image is actually two, layered on top of each other. The last image, as with much of my work, blurs the light. I'm so pleased that the blurs are completely straight. Trust me, it took a lot of wavy shots to get this one :)

From now on, I require every flight to cross the mountains and land at sunset.

Chestnuts roasting on an open fire... neon nipping at sunsets...
Yuletide carols being sung by a choir, and shots dressed up like rorschach tests...
Prospect Park VI
To give a glimpse behind the scenes, here's how the landscape looks without any gesture during exposure.
More to come! <3
A different mood, yet still same location. I was shooting with a client a few weeks ago, and remember how astounded they were to see the wide range of images available in a short time at a single location.
I, of course, share that awe - which is how I find myself more entranced with photography today than I was three years ago when I started this blog.

Happy Christmas, everyone!
I look forward to sharing the next set of Prospect Park images with you soon :)
