Exercise 20 - Busy traffic

I had a problem with this exercise as I had just changed my camera from a Nikon D200 professional body to a Nikon D5000 consumer body and as such do not have the range of features with regard to speed and aperture that I had before. As it was I had to up the ISO from 100 to 800 to get any movement in the shots at all. When I tried to take some decent images on the seafront with the sun shining down on a small car park, there was almost complete burnout of the images.

In the end I took several pictures at our local Town Mill with the camera on a tripod. The shutter was as slow as I could get it with the smallest aperture (f22 at 1/8th second). I decided to import the main movements from each individual photo to one main image and combine.







Completed combined image

I had fun with this picture cutting, erasing and combining all the pictures. I thought that with the limitations of my equipment, I did quite a good job.
