This photo is my best from the shoot, it really shows slow sync very well, we can see where she has moved but we can also see her in very sharp quality. I really like this effect because it could be used very symbolically, it looks like the soul is leaving the body, especially in this photograph where it is still connected. I think I would like to try this effect in one of my shoots to explore the effect a bit more, although I will do it out of the studio at night. I would like to see how it will work out of the studio because it is quite plain in the studio. To make sure we used the right F stop and ISO we used a light meter, this accurately shows us what the camera settings should be.

This is my worst photograph from the shoot, although it does show slow sync, it doesn't show it very well, in addition the subject isn't in very sharp quality like most of the others that I did. Also the subject isn't filling enough of the frame, one side of it is completely black and very boring to look at, whereas my best photograph there is the slow sync effect on both sides which makes the photograph much more appealing to look at.
Progression:
Next time I will spend longer taking these photographs as I didn't get as many as I hoped I would. Furthermore I think it would look better with a nicer background, these don't have a very good contrast as the background looks grey. I would prefer it to be a much darker black, although this is fixable through editing I don't want to change it too much because the subject is wearing black and this mightn't look very good.
This is the example of slow sync photography that we were shown in class, I really like this because even in the slow sync you can still see the facial features of the subject. I think the photographer probably used a faster shutter speed than me to get this effect.
