1henost popular subject to'blur' is water,
but novingclouds, foliageandevenpeople

howdoyoucreatetheehect 1hesinple
answer is toenploy a slowshutter speed,
typically of Ii4secor longer. By doingso,
any novenent duringthetinetheshutter is

exposureof aroundthis length, youcould
shoot inlowlight, whenshutter speeds will

is toofast tocreateblur andyoudon't have

Althoughless regularly discussed, a
DSLR's nultipleexposurefacility canbe
enployedtogeneratea very sinilar ehect
tothat of anNDlter. Basically, insteadof
takinga singlelongexposure, younake
nultipleexposures of a nornal length.
Whenconbined, theresult looks alnost

nulti-exposurewouldehectively appear as
if it hadbeenshot usinga singleIi2sec

blur water ripples, cascadingwaterfalls and
fast-novingclouds.
Multipleexposurenodes allowyouto

Whynot try.
Why not spell out awordor phrase
withyour letters Lvenbetter, try to
basetheletters that youshoot around
athene-for exanple, ndtheletters
for theword'bike', usingonly bike
parts, as wehavedonehere, or spell
soneone's naneout usingobjects

1heresults look great whenfraned

Ideas totry...
endtheruIes: Sone letters nay be a
struggle tond, sohelpyourself out by
creating the shapes yourselfl couldn't nd
the letter 'U' anywhere, soarrangedthis
discardedwire tosuit ny needsl
Potateandip: Sone letters will appear
backwards inthe real worldsocanbe
tricky tospot. Don't be afraidof rotating andi
or fipping thentonake thenwork. After
all, an'M' canalsobe a 'W' or evenan'L', tool
Useshadows: Althoughyoucould
capture anobject that looks like a letter,
sonetines photographing the object's
shadowadds interest andvariety. Lxpose for
the bright areas tocreate boldshadows.
Useawideaperture: uite oftenyou'll
ndthat the backgroundinyour inages
detracts fronyour letter. or exanple, the 'B'
foundonthis gate lock wouldn't be as clear if
everything behindit was alsoinfocus.
Useforcedperspective: Sone letters
only appear at a certainangle. Here, the
letter '' is nade upof a lanppost andtwo
beans whichonly alignat this perspective. A
nid-aperture gives suhcient depth-of-eld.
Lookup: Don't linit yourself tophysical
objects -if youspot a gapor space that
looks like a letter thenfrane the shot anduse
negative exposure conpensationtoexpose

DIFFERENTIALFOCU5ING
Whileextensivedepth-of-eldis usually
requiredfor any kindof wide-anglescenic
photography, therewill alsobetines when
youwant tonininiseit.
Portraitureis agoodexanple-if you
shoot portraits withasnall aperture, the
backgroundwill recordinfocus as well as
your subject andbehighly distracting.
However, if youopenyour lens uptoawide
aperturesuchas fi2.8or fi4andfocus
carefully onyour subject's eyes, the
backgroundwill bethrownconpletely out
of focus soyour subject takes centrestage.
Mininal depth-of-eldcanalsobeusedfor

everythingelseinfront of andbeyondis
blurredbeyondrecognition-atechnique
knownas diherential focus.
You'll struggletoachievethis witha
wide-anglelens unless thethingyoufocus
onis veryclosetothecanera, evenat
naxinun(widest) aperture, but atelephoto
or telezoonlens usedat its widest aperture
will reducedepth-of-eldtojust afew
inches andanacrolens usedwide-open
will giveyoujust afewnillinetres of sharp
focus, soyoucancreateabstract close-ups
of fowers andother snall subjects.
1hegreat thingabout shootingwith
your lens at its widest apertureis that the
depth-of-eld(or lack of it) yousee
throughtheviewnder is what you'll get on
thenal inage, soyou'll haveaclear ideaof
howyour shots will turnout.

However, whenyou'reshootingsubjects froncloserange,

Introductoryflashtechniques
f your hone or ohce has white walls,
thenyou've the perfect surface toact as
a large fashdihuser. While the connon
practice is topoint the fashguntowards
the subject, withthis technique, youain
the fashheadat the wall insteadand
allowthe light tobounce ohits surface
andspreadtocover a far wider area with
a beautifully dihusedlight. Youcanuse
a single fashgunwiththis set-up,
althoughbeingable touse a second
fash, too, will double the output,
increasingthe range coveredand
your choice of exposure settings.
Withthis technique, after placingyour
subject inposition, youset upthefashto
thesideof youona standandainit
towards thewhitewall that your subject
is facing. f youhavetwofashguns, you'd
placethesecondontheother sideof
you. 1hefashheads areainedat the
wall, althoughif youhavea lowwhite
ceiling, youcanalsotilt it upwards at an
angle. 1his will givea sinilar ehect to
usinga hugesoftbox tospreadthelight.

particularly useful techniquetouseif

Usingoh-canera fashset-ups withone,

availablenodiers allows youtolight not
only thesubject but alsothebackground
inany nunber of ways, fronhigh-key to
spotlit 'Hollywood-style'. Hereweoher a
fewsinplefashtechniques that givevery
high-quality results. Withall these
techniques -withtheexceptionof
high-speedfash-set bothyour canera
andfashguntonanual.
1) Above: 5et uponeashgun

andaimit at thewaII that the
subject is facing(iepointing
behindyou).
2) eIow: TheresuIt of the
ashbouncingohthewhite

dihusedIight that gives a
veryatteringehect.
3) Left: Youcanaddafurther dimensiontoimages bypIacingaash

4) Above: Usingasecondashgunfor thehair adds aprofessionaI
touchtoyour portrait. Adjust its positionandpower tovarytheresuIt.
Youcanuseyour fashguntocreatehighly
stylisedportraits withanair of nystery.
Byhavingyour subject leanagainst the
backdropandainingthefashat anarrow
angle, thenshootingfrontheoppositeside,
youcancaptureinages withthesubject as a
near-silhouettewithastrongrinlight
aroundthen. 1his is apopular techniquefor
boudoir anderoticphotographybut canbe
appliedtoother forns of portraits too.
Becausethelightingis sostrongand
directional, youneedtobeawarethat the
positionof thefashandhowyour subject
poses is critical totheehect. Sone
photographers prefer toget theposition
andangleof thefashright rst, thenadjust
thenodel's pose, others prefer doingit the
oppositeway. Usewhichever process suits
you, thentry nakingslight variations to
boththefashandthesubject toseehow
theehect changes. Movingthefash
further away fronthesubject gives a
sharper light, whilenovingit closer nakes
it noredihused. As thesubject is generally
inshadow, havethenextendtheir legs and
nininisetheanount of contact withthe
wall toreveal their shapeandcreatenore
attractivespreads of shadow.
3) Fireatest shot. Check(andadjust if necessary)
theashpower anddirection, as weII as howthe
Iight faIIs onyour subject andtheir pose.
4) Top: ThenaI resuIt oozesmoodandmystery.
Often, thebest resuItsarewhenthesubject Iooks
at theash, givinganicerimIight aroundtheface.
1) This shot of themodeI against apurpIewaII
is okay, but withstrongcoIour backdrops,
there's thechancetobeabit diherent withash.
2) 5et uptheash. PIacetheashgunfairIycIose

towards thewaII rather thanthesubject.
1henost connonfornof lightingarrangenent with
a singlelight sourceis toplaceit slightly higher and
angledat 45 tothesubject. nnany respects this gives
a natural fall of light ontothesubject, whichis why it's
sopleasingtotheviewer's eye. Whenusingthis set-up,
reoha snall selectionof test shots, changingthe
angleof thefashslightly but alsohavingyour subject
turntheir faceslowly fronfacingthecanera tofacing
thefashsoyou'reabletoseehowthefacesuits the
light. Sonefaces look best at anangle, whileothers
look better withthelight norestraight on.
neother considerationtonakeis thedeliberate
inclusionof shadows by howcloseyour subject is tothe
background. Havethenleanagainst thewall andyou'll
includetheir shadowonthebackdrop, whilehaving
thenstandacoupleof feet away fronit reduces or
renoves thechanceof any shadowbeingrecorded.
1hetypeof nodier youusewill ahect howyour
subject andtheshadows arerendered. Shoot without

denedshadows ontheoppositesideof theface(and
possibly thewall too). Useabrolly or softbox for afar

Modern architecture is great for anyone who
enjoys experimenting with their photography.
lt is usually more productive to work without a
tripod in these situations, but paying attention to
light and composition is still critical. A polariser
helped emphasise the clouds foating above the
hard geometric lines of the buildings.
Tower Bridge fram

Although made with a Nikon D-800,
l hand-held the camera as time was of the
essence with the refected light shifting
rapidly. l loved the way this channel of
water draws light into an 'urban canyon',
but to balance the exposure a ND grad was
needed over the top third of the image.
cameras have freed photographers with
their instant feedback and hand-holdability.
While the tripod remains essential for 'work',
hand-holding allows us to play, or 'sketch',
and the compact can become a great source
of ideas. The LEE Seven5 micro flter system
is so small that it makes a portable companion
to quality digital compacts (and some less
than compact cameras too!j. By improving
and personalising our ideas in camera, flters
help reduce the curse of post production
and make photography more fun.

At Premier nk Supplies, we stock two types of cartridges for Epson printers - OriginaIs,
which are made by Epson, and CompatibIes, which are made by a UK company called
Jet Tec. Using Jet Tec CompatibIes is a way of saving money, without compromising on
the quality of your prints. Here're the results from two independent ink tests that agree.
"Jet Tec's coIours were superb, with singIe greys and
bIacks very cIose to Epson .so Jet Tec wins!"
- Total Digital Photography Magazine
"What we're Iooking at here is not onIy the best choice
of ink for the R300 printer, but aIso the best ink in this
group test, period. There's just no getting away from
the superb combination of performance and pricing"
- Computer Upgrade Magazine
