...or Louiszoom. Couldn't decide. Anyway, I'm mostly happy with this one and learned a bit. Here's what I did and then what I'll do different next time.
I shot at 100 ISO, f14 with a 20 second exposure. I started on the wide end, beginning zooming immediately as smoothly as I could for approximately 17 seconds then held the last 3 seconds at full zoom to put the emphasis on that point.
Next time I'm going to try to hold a little longer at the end for more emphasis without loosing too much of the movement I hope. I'll try 4,5 and 6 seconds and see how that does. The only other thing that bugs me that I can control is for a smoother zoom action. I'm thinking of draping a ribbon or string over the zoom ring and pulling on one end while keeping tension on the other. Hopefully without making my camera move in the process. If anyone has any other suggestions or comments I'd love to hear them. Thanks for looking.
