Lens Artists Photo Challenge #350 – Zooming

Anne has challenged us to create images using a zooming technique. She tells us “Zooming is part of the Intentional Camera Movement family, but instead of moving the camera, you are just moving the lens back and forth.”

I had never heard of this before reading Anne’s post so I spent a lot of time experimenting with different subjects. I had a lot of fun even though I ended up deleting more photos than I kept.

The featured image is of an oleander bush in my back yard. It was one of my final attempts at zooming.

I started out taking night photos of the lights on my neighbors docks. I didn’t use a tripod and I tried many different settings on the camera. Most were epic fails but I liked the way this next photo turned out.

My next images were taken during the day looking up at trees in the woods of rural Georgia.

Last week Tina challenged us to add captions to our photos that would make us smile. Thanks to everyone who rose to the challenge and not only made me smile but sometimes made me laugh out loud!

Ritva will be leading next weeks challenge so be sure to look for her post on Saturday.

Many thanks to Anne for introducing me to Zooming with this fun challenge Lens-Artists #350 – Zooming
