Blurry Abstract Style
Hey Fstoppers Friends,
What do you think of this weird, streaky abstract photography?

I thought I would try out my 50 year old lenses: Canon FD 50mm f/1.5 SSC and Canon FD 28mm f/2.8 on my Canon R5 with the use of the appropriate adapter.

Outside the tourist area photos.
These photos were taken just outside of a small town in central Portugal.

I really enjoy creating something different with drones. I've had the Mavic now for about four weeks and I absolutely love it.

Very well done to accentuate the movement. What is your process?
...tHANKs Paul. f11@2sec ISO 100. This is a two light set up. A tungsten light on the left to capture the blur and a flash on the right to stop the motion. I use 2nd curtain sync to fire the flash at the end of the exposure. It's an unpredictable, abstract style that doesn't make a mess like throwing flour around :)
Cool!
Great shots and very smooth, fluid lines. Love the 2nd shot for the mostly white trail.
...tHANKs Bruce. Very elegant, eh?!
The second image especially is a knock-out, Hank! It captures the sense of that balletic movement beautifully The third is very striiking, but the blurred, streaky part, doesn't complement a violinist, who would normally stand still, as well.
I do admire your creative, experimental approach.
You could also post these in Minimalism, Abstract, Experimental; it's a very receptive and active Group.
...tHANKs for your comments Chris. It's so cool... I agree with everything you're saying. I even joined the group!!!
