Fast shutter experimentation

With these two images I experimented with capturing my dog running through water at a beach. Sadly the sun was going down and the lighting wasn't perfect but they still came out interestingly. To improve with this type of photography I would shoot at an earlier time where there is more light as well as using a faster shutter speed to capture the water slashing better. 
 This second image I like how I managed to capture my dog still even though I didn't capture the water still, which also shows the different speed of how fast my dog is moving compared to the water which is moving faster. The way I captured my dog mid-run also is similar to Eadweard Muybridge and how he captured a horses running style with high speed photography.

Final Piece - Motion Time lapse

I had previously created a time lapse of this location but it to me wasn't good enough due to a couple reasons, one being that it wasn't that long of a video, I wanted it to be a little bit longer. The other reason was that during shooting the the time lapse i had moved the camera while it was taking the images by accident, this resulted in the framing being different so in around the middle of it the shot jumps to a slightly different shot, which I was not happy with. So I resulted to re-shooting the images to create a new time lapse and this is what the end piece was. To create this time-lapse I used a sturdy tripod were I made sure that the legs and positioning of the camera was all locked into place after I had lined the shot that I wanted up with the camera. I used an Intervalometer or timer remote controller that simply plugs into your camera, I set the settings to end up taking a shot every 6 seconds after each exposure had completed as each shot was exposed for 4 ...

This results normally in a negative shadow image that shows differences in shade depending on how transparent the object that was place on top was. Originally having trained in painting, she had expressed an early interest in abstraction. Derges then turned to cameraless photography after having some frustration with the way that the  "the camera always separat...
