This photo is particularly effective in conveying a sense of movement as it depicts someone on a bicycle, the white light trails at the back signifying fast movement - making the whole photo even more impressive as it seems it is caught in such rapid moments. The red of the bicycle tires is paired perfectly with the orange of the night sky and the neon green silhouette is a sharp contradistinction, making it an especially distinctive image. The spotting stars in the sky add to the of movement

This gif is effective in grabbing the viewer's attention, because of the humorous & entertaining illusion that the subject of the gif, is digging, perpetually, without any end.

This gif is particularly effective in capturing the viewer's attention because of the stark contrast between the engaging dancing of the man and the mundane background of a train station. It also is interesting in this way because of the motionless backdrop compared to the lively movement of the subject. His blue shoes also pop in and amongst the bland grey setting.

2nd Response
After the first shooting and creating of gifs, I wanted to learn how to make them look more crisp and stabilised. For these two GIFs, which I think are my best, I applied what I already had learnt to create them.
Zoom blur
Zoom blur photography creates the illusion that something or someone is moving, when in reality it's standing still. It is blur caused by activating the zoom feature on your lens while the shutter is open. A similar effect can be achieved by physically moving your camera closer or further from a subject while photographing.

This photo seems to be of a motorway, the clearly defined lines on the floor help the viewer understand this. The negative space on either side of the ground, draw the viewer's eye to the top and bottom of the photos, the continuous red lines and the elongated light in between them, being the most vibrant and animated portion of the photograph. Because this is a long exposure photograph, the background and the foreground seem miles away from each other and contrast satisfyingly.

Natsumi Hayashi is a photographer who specialises in levitation photography, using only her camera, tripod and self timer. The results are breathtaking images, snapshots of movement in time.
1st class response to levitation photography
To achieve an image that looks like the subject of the photo is levitating, you have to use a fast shutter speed and time when the press the shutter with when your model jumps.
To further develop this project, I edited some of my photos to resemble the work of Stewart Marsden's black and white photographs of the bustling city life. His black-and-white photographs of London street life capture glimpses of human interaction in the often cold, impersonal city, moments of quiet reflection amid the hustle and bustle. Of this work, he says, "I spend my spare time exploring the streets of London, my Pentax K-5 always in my hand and a bag of fixed length prime lenses over my shoulder. I watch the people, see new spaces, new shapes."
I particularly like the photo on the left, because it depicts a moment of calm, amongst the packed yada yada yada blah blah etc tec ereakf
