We continued on with our storytelling theme in our Project 52 last week, focusing on movement. Adding movement to your image is an instant way to breathe life into it, whether the action is stopped, blurred or implied. The p52 participants blew me away with their use of technical skills like panning, ICM, light painting, multiple exposures, etc. How do you incorporate movement in your work?

The month of March in our Project 52 is all about storytelling. The first weekly theme was layering. Since photography is a two-dimensional artform, we are always on a mission to create an illusion of more—how to make the photograph appear three-dimensional. The most effective way to do so is by adding depth using layers.

It was fun seeing the creative and unique ways the p52 participants used layering in their photos last week. Do you like using layers or is it something you struggle with?
