View to St Albans Cathedral, Hertfordshire, April 2020
Five seconds with a mix of holding the camera steady and moving it up and down, gives this gently blurred image. The combination of length of shutter speed; when and where you hold steady; and the speed and direction of movement, all come together to give the image that you want. But it may take a few attempts to get exactly what you are after.

Love the painterly effect, Debbie. And many thanks for letting us at All Seasons in on the secret:) Just thought when getting over here that it has been ages that I have seen the buttercups in the meadows in Holland. It’s probably to warm and too dry for them here. Have an adventurous week, Jesh.

Thanks Su. I was very pleased with this one. When ICM works, you get a multiple view of the pretty bits 🙂

I’m going to try but I suspect this won’t work with either my iPad or iPhone camera. I love the effect you’ve achieved.

That’s lovely. If a spot of not holding the camera steady is all that’s needed, I should be perfect at this. Perhaps it’s not that simple …

You told me to inundate, so I will! I can see you like the attractive versions rather than the gloomy, dark ones, Sue, so I’ll see what else I can come up with.
