The series is selection of pictures taken in a few Forests in Ireland using the technique Intentional Camera Movements (ICM). I took all the pictures during the month of October 2020 to get the Autumn colors.I like the abstract, creative and artistic effect. Also the ICM makes pictures looks like paintings. The final result depends of the focal length,the exposure time and the speed of moving the camera. I found out that the most pleasing results for me I get when use focal lengths between 35-50mm and exposure times between 1 and 4 seconds. All pictures are taken moving the camera upwards.
