With a steady hand and a slow shutter speed the action
of Purged Ritualistic on the Royal Mile was allowed to feature in
these still pictures. A diffused flash was used to still the action
even as the slow shutter speed allowed it to flow in the exposure.
The ice and fire approach to picture making can freeze a part of the
action whilst the motion blur seems to hot melt other aspects of the
image. The method of making an image can work to reveal the subject.
When shooting action shots it is good involve action in the
photographic method. Using fast photographic flash light and
intentional camera movement to capture action makes the images
display the dual character of sharp clarity and blurred movement.
Taking pictures like this during the Edinburgh Festival is complex
and engaging and so much fun.
