Dear reader, if this entry or my other blog entries don't answer your specific photography questions, you can call me on the phone anytime for advice by clicking here.If you have been to New York city, no doubt you have visited the iconic landmark, Rockefeller Plaza. This location has been in countless movies, and always makes for interesting people photography. This lesson has to do with the importance of movement in a photo, and how to technically achieve such an end.
This image would not have nearly as much drama if the people were frozen in action. The figures needed a very slight motion blur to suggest movement, taking the image from a static to a dynamic state. Since every moving subject will be traveling at a different speed, it is impossible for me to suggest accurate shutter speed and aperture settings, so it is best to experiment with a few different exposures. Put your camera on a tripod, lock it tight, and start photographing.
If you find that the people are blurry beyond all recognition, then speed up the shutter speed. Conversely, if they are still frozen in place, the shutter speed needs to be a bit slower. Depending on the speed of the subject, 1/2 second exposures are a good starting point for this process.
