On a whim while out for one of my walks this week I captured this image of two walkers with their dogs in a local regional park. I don’t usually target people in my photography, but I was curious about what would happen with a slow shutterspeed. Looks like I’ll be capturing more people in future blur images…I loved how the white on their boots made attractive arcs in the resulting image, so I decided to share.

I totally wasn’t expecting their boots to be the stars of the show. 🙂

I don’t think we can necessarily anticipate the effects of a long exposure…..

Agreed! I think that’s part of the fun for me, seeing how motion blurs turn out can be like Christmas morning! 🙂

Thanks, Kaz, go for it. 🙂 I was inspired to give this one a go after shooting those gulls the other day. There was a guy on the pier feeding the gulls and pigeons and in some of the images I captured were blurred people watching the gulls. I thought the effect was rather intriguing. I’m going to intentionally include people the next time I’m at the pier capturing gull blurs and see how I like them.

That’s quite fun, Katrina! I’m don’t usually take photos of people either. The runners on their feet are amazing!

I thought so! The white soles and markings were perfect for the shot, weren’t they?! (They were actually Sorel-type winter boots.)
