The idea is quite simple, set your camera to exposure priority mode, dial in the lowest exposure you can hand-hold and keep sharp, then shoot a moving object while panning with it. To give you a better chance of success, I also set the camera to burst mode and pan with the train while constantly shooting. Not every shot will be sharp, but by shooting a burst of 10 or so you have way more chance of getting a good shot!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align:center\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.bartbusschots.ie\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/06\/dsc-9512.jpg\" alt=\"Speeding to Dublin\" style=\"border-width:0px;\" width=\"450\" height=\"320\" \/><br \/><a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/bbusschots\/3595923359\/\" target=\"_blank\">on Flickr<\/a> &#8211; <a href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/bbusschots\/3595923359\/sizes\/o\/\" target=\"_blank\">Full-Size<\/a><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Camera:<\/strong> Nikon D40<\/li>\n<li><strong>Lens:<\/strong> Nikon DX AFS 18-55mm (D40 kit lens)<\/li>\n<li><strong>Exposure:<\/strong> 1\/60 sec<\/li>\n<li><strong>Focal Length:<\/strong> 18mm<\/li>\n<li><strong>Focal Ratio:<\/strong> <em>f\/22<\/em><\/li>\n<li><strong>ISO:<\/strong> 200<\/li>\n<li><strong>Camera Mode:<\/strong> Aperture Priority<\/li>\n<li><strong>Exposure Bias:<\/strong> -0.3EV<\/li>\n<li><strong>Processing:<\/strong> Used Aperture&#8217;s Dodge &#038; Burn plugin to darken the sky a little, lighten the foreground a little, and lighten the train a little more.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It seems like just far too long ago that I did a single Photo of the week post. sure, it&#8217;s late, but not so late as to need combining with next week&#8217;s post!
