I have been exploring motion in my photography for years. I love the ability of the camera's shutter to either stop action, or intentionally blur it. We can literally see the unseen. I have always admired the lovely murals on the walls and ceiling in the Young Building on the Salve University campus. While teaching there, I had the opportunity to photograph them. I crafted these images by shooting in the darkened ballroom using a slow shutter speed with a low ISO. The exposure was one half second at f/8. I held the camera in hand, and zoomed the lens during the exposure. Later, in Photoshop, I added grain and an texture overlay, as well as a wide border to further realize my vision.
