ICM Intentional Camera Movement – February Virtual Phot Meet Up Project
Hello Fellow Shutterbugs,
Our February Virtual Photo Meet Up Project is ICM
Intentional Camera Movement –
What is it?
ICM is both a technique and an artistic way of expression.
Used by photographers to capture a form of abstract art known as impressionism
Instead of using a tripod to keep the camera still, the photographer moves the camera in a panning motion to create motion blur while the camera’s shutter is open.
Using a slower shutter speed combined with a moderate panning motion provides best results
Selecting the lowest ISO on the camera is recommended.
There are no hard and fast rules. It is all about experimentation. Its not a “One Shot Deal”.
