Fun With Propellers

Fun With Propellers
I was fascinated with the propeller patterns on our aircraft this week as I looked through the viewfinder. I tried a few different settings and this one really surprised me.

Saturday Self-challenge: S or S shape. It is subtle but these optical illusions look S-shaped to me.

Yes! =D

I know the "trick". It much depends on the exposure time and way how camera shutter curtains or sensor recording happens.

Years ago I had a mobile phone camera that had a "slow" recording speed, and used it to create some funny shots by twisting the camera during the exposure.

There the exposure time has to be short, and the camera or object movement rather quick. An early photography classic example is this:

Recently I discovered an alternative way to do something similar with panorama stitching:
