Assignment 9

Make a photograph that demonstrates motion. You may either freeze your subject or show motion blur.
You must use at least one strobe.
Post: One photograph. Give a description of your setup and what you were trying to capture and how you achieved it in your image.

f/4 ISO 200 2 secs

I wanted to capture motion and I knew I wanted to use color.  I knew that setting up a continuous light with a color gel would give some motion with color and in conjunction with the strobe would freeze the action a bit.  The strobe flashed once in the beginning and than the subject moved within a 2 second period.  I liked the one above the most because the movement was contained within the backdrop.

f/3.5 ISO 100 3.2 secs

This is an extra photo that I was going to post originally, but found that my composition was sloppy.   It does however exhibit what happens when a strobe is flashed twice during a shutter speed set to three seconds.  In this case, continuous light was to my left and strobe to the right.  Strobe flashed with the camera and then manually flashed again at 3 seconds.  Both photos were achieved using the same set-up.
