Hello everyone in PHOTOGRAPHY LOVERS community, hope you have a great day. I've just started learning and practicing a new phototography technique that produces fantastic results. I'm talking about ICM, or Intentional Camera Movement.
So what is ICM? In its most basic form, ICM is photographic capture while purposefully moving the camera during the exposure, and almost of the time, we use slow shutter speed, low aperture. Pan your camera or place it on a tripod and pan it to generate movement. It looks like a long exposure, but if you've ever done one, you know that moving the camera during the exposure is the polar opposite of what you're "supposed" to do and usually create fault photos. But ICM is more like an experiment for photographers who immerse themselves in it—it becomes an entirely new universe of photography to explore, practice, and perfect.
I captured these photos with ICM. I mount my camera on a tripod and take panning photos. The light trail from the sun is obvious and the reflection of light on the water is spreading. It appears to be very surreal and fascinating. I was blown away by the outcome and intend to do it again and again and again.
This method is applicable to many types of photography, not simply landscapes on the beach. I've seen a lot of stunning street photography shots with ICM, and it truly adds a new dimension to the photos.
The first photo from this post today is my entry to the PhotoFeed Contest - Long Exposure Photography by @photofeed. Thank you so much for this wonderful opportunity.
Thank you for reading and supporting me. Have a nice day!
PEACE!
