Hi Kim, I like this kind of experiments and special techniques. The result of your play is not bad, but as Hugo already said, I prefer second curtain flash too. I am not sure if that is possible with the 300D, it might depend on your flash-unit too. The suggestion to use multiple exposures is not bad, but the effect would be different from this.
Kim, I like the fill flash experiments. I posted a tryptich with fill flash a couple of weeks ago. I think, however, that I would have flashed on the second curtain. Now it looks as if she's walking backwards. Nicole was walking slightly towards you? She appears slightly larger on the end of the exposure. Also, I think the effect would have been slightly more expressive if you'd zoomed in a bit more. But I do like this shot!
Well I have used flesh in the past, but for this one I used flash ;-). This was a one second exposure with flash, the flash freezes the initial image and then the model moved to create the streaking. Perhaps this technique is so old it's new again? To do a multiple exposure I'd use a strobe or multiple flashes with an even longer exposure, in fact I've done that at: http://usefilm.com/image/284899.html Ah, wait I see, no the title doesn't refer to three images of Nicole, it's just the third in a series I've posted.
The background is dirty because I wanted to get the impression of walking down the street beside a wall. You get a brief sharp impression of someone passing on the street, then it's a blur.
i'm sorry..but this is the failed one..sorry..IMHO...can you set your 300D multiple exposure?? set the multiple exposure to 3 times....and you take your picture with flash..it should be 3 nicole in a frame..IMHO..correct me if i'm wrong... i just can help you..set the exposure compesation -2 stops..i tried this..but i never get the maximum output..maybe it's useful..thank you..and once more..the BG is little bit dirty..i saw..
