Emily Ferguson - Slow panning a sunset near
me the other night.
Interesting image, but I'd like to know in what sense it was
"panning". Did the camera move? If so, over what angle? How long
was the exposure? Or were only the clouds moving? Stuff like that.
f29, 1/3rd second exposure, ISO100, underexposed 1/3 stop, 170mm,
hand held, manual mode
Yes, I pan the camera across the scene. I'd prefer more time, but
I'm thankful for what I can get.
I start by focussing, and then take a breath and release the shutter,
attempting to begin panning at the moment I hear the mirror click up.
In this case I panned from L to R, unintentionally raising the camera
a little as I went.
Until I get some sort of neutral density filter I can only do this
when light is very low.
