Exercise 3.2
Start by doing your own research into some of the artists discussed above.  Then, using slow shutter speeds, the multiple exposure function, or another technique inspired by the examples above, try to record the trace of movement within the frame. You can be as experimental as you like. Add a selection of shots together with relevant shooting data and a description of your process (how you captured the shots) to your learning log.

This first exercise to answer this brief wasn’t really inspired by any of the research, more it came out of what can I do on a wet friday afternoon! Hence I went with some coin spinning.  Using shutter priority and a remote, I was able to set the camera on the table and spin the coin.  My first attempts were using 1/40 second, but I only managed to capture a blur, so I increased the speed to 1/80 and then was happier with the results.  I wanted to able to still that it was a coin even though it was moving.  Using the marble slab underneath also gave a nice reflection. 

I started using just ambient light, but decided to try side light the coin with my phone torch.  I was actually quite pleased with the results.  Whilst editing the images I have tried to crop them all differently, to see if that changes the feel and impact of the image.

This was an attempt at camera movement rather than subject
