Pool Night

[Prezwoodz]

Thought I would bring my camera to the pool hall tonight and see what I could come up with. Some are blurry but I liked what they show so I used them anyway. :) Enjoy.

Nothing better on a Snowy, Dark, Windy day.

Totally feeling the first one, I gotta try that sometime.

Those are wild. I really like the first one -- a real play on motion and time.
Quite interesting.

I've tried shooting this game more than once and never came away with anything remotely worthwhile. That first shot is pretty cool, and I think if the last one had a less busy background it would be sweet as well. Nice work.

That first one is great. But the reflection is pretty cool too.

Love the technique in the first two, but the last two work better as photographs. Better composition and better context. What would it take to harness that technique and get a really good photograph from it? How slow does the shutter have to be? Could you get more of the shooter? Can you shoot from above? Use a much wider lens? Portrait orientation?

THanks everyone for comments.

rutt I think you have some ideas, I think one thing that could make it a better shot right away would be a tripod. I had the shutter open and did the picture handheld so it could be a lot crispier.
