Kinetic Photography (Second Try)


Hope you have a splendid new week.
Here is my second try on kinetic photography (playing with torch).....took the inspiration of a tv advertisement i saw, they were too professional in there light sketches but anyway Practice makes a man perfect :)
My venturing into new techniques and all is all because of 3 to 4 hour long black outs that too twice a day atleast and at really random hours.....so with no TV, internet or any other activity in house to do except the chores, I end up experimenting new stuff with my camera.

Kinetic Photography (first try)

Okay hello everyone...there aren't much people on my blog yet...no worries it will change with time..Hopefully
So here i have tried to do a new camera technique it falls in the category of Kinetic photography, its the field where you take a shot of moving light with camera settings on long exposure. So the image can vary depending upon the movement of light i.e, there are a few i took where i was moving the torch in front of the camera on self timer, than there are others which i took while the camera was moving around and the torch lay still...
The torch i used has 3 LED bulbs so you may see thin streaks of light forming a wider one :)

Ryan Gallagher was the man who introduced this technique and he has a blog which tells all about his work. This is the link to it http://cameratoss.blogspot.com/

Below are the few shots i took today, while there was a 2 hour long blackout. Tell me what you think about it, would love to know your thoughts :)

The image below is taken when camera is moving 
and the light source (torch) is still.

My very first post

Hello friends and cyber beings.
My first post on my very first blog. A friend of mine suggested that i should make a blog as flickr isn't coming so handy they don't get to see the whole picture as in the story behind each picture i take. So hopefully i'll get the knack of blogging soon and start posting rather blogging regularly..
please subscribe to my blog, will make me happy :D
This cake is for my new Blog :)

The cake came from the Shezan Bakery in DHA main boulevard and it was just as tasty as it looks in the image i took this image about almost a month ago....i have a very bad sweet tooth so for me it was blissful ;)
