Use your zoom lens creatively to create motion in your photo

zoom pepper lens motionLast fall I experimented with using the zoom on my kitobjektiv 18-55mm for my EOS 350D to create a little movement in the images by using long exposure while zooming. First, I played with a pepper grinder that we have at home on the dinner table. I look to have quite some time and then I will zoom in the image in a continuous motion while being exposed.

The second image I have created two dimensions by creating almost a double exposure by having a slow shutter speed while zoomed in fairly quickly. I also tried to use the train in motion picture to create a little pad, two dimensions motion blurbut have not succeeded in really well. It has thus exposed a long time in two positions, but still moved between locations. I think it’s important to experiment in this way, not least in order to learn this with the exposure and shutter speed. I also think it can make really cool pictures.

It would be fun to see if others have experimented with this or if you go out now and play a little. Please feel free to show what you’ve caught in your experiments. By looking at other ways to shoot, you can learn a lot. Check in our community to be inspired by others. You can also see it applied on my Örnbräken picture.
